Australian Working Holiday Visas
An Australian Working Holiday Visa allows you to stay in Australia for up to 12 months and to work in a job for six months. You may be able to extend the visa for an additional year if you undertake 'specified' work, including seasonal and volunteer work.
Check the Department of Immigration and Border Protection website for visa details.
Work in Melbourne
Melbourne is home to numerous international sports and cultural events, and this means plenty of short-term employment opportunities, especially over the summer.
