From April 26th, 2008, the Australian government stipulated that all Australian student visas should bring their own work permit visas, so long as they are over 18 years old, they can work.

The Australian Immigration Bureau stipulates that international students should not work more than 40 hours every two weeks, but they are not subject to this restriction during public holidays and winter and summer vacations.

Foreign students who come to Australia to study and start work need to apply for the tax file number from the Australian Taxation Bureau.

In Australia, it is expressly stipulated that all workers are equal, and employers only need to choose whether to enroll according to their ability to work. If the employer requires international students to provide relevant gender, age, nationality, height and weight, marital status, etc. These are not allowed and illegal.

2) Supermarket: There are two kinds of jobs in the supermarket, tally clerk and cashier. Tally clerks are generally male and cashiers are generally female.

Advantages: Compared with the catering industry, it is not so dirty and tired, especially the cashier is relatively easy.

Disadvantages: tallyman needs to move heavy objects frequently, so it is sometimes hard. Generally speaking, the salary is not very high.

Rules for studying and working in Australia

The working hours of Australian international students are as follows: during each semester, international students can only choose part-time jobs, and the off-campus working hours are 20 hours per week. If you go out to work during the holidays, international students can choose to work full-time, with a working time of 40 hours per week.

Many universities in Australia support international students to work outside the school like local students, and will set up some job-seeking institutions on campus to guide international students to fill out job-seeking forms and pay job-seeking fees, so as to provide information on various part-time opportunities for international students.

During studying in Australia, international students should not have too high requirements for part-time jobs. The most popular way of working in Australia is to engage in various jobs in the service industry, and there are few jobs like family education in China. Therefore, foreign students mostly work as salespersons, waiters and cleaners in supermarkets and restaurants, and the income from such jobs is generally around 12 to 16 Australian dollars.

Advantages of studying in Australia

1, comfortable and safe study and living environment

1) Good weather, poor hours, easy to adapt and contact.

Australia has a mild climate, with an average annual temperature of 27℃ in the north and 14℃ in the south. The climate is similar to that in southern China, so people in China can easily adapt to it. At the same time, the difference between Australian time and Beijing time is only 2-3 hours, which is convenient for students to communicate with their parents.

2) Developed economy and high living standard.

The Australian people have a high standard of living. In 2008, the GDP reached US$ 800.5 billion, and the per capita GDP reached US$ 38 100, ranking among the top 30 in the world, even higher than that of Britain.

2. Higher education system

1) The education system ranks third in the world, second only to the United States and Britain.

Australia is recognized as one of the countries with the most advanced and innovative education and training systems in the world. Australia has been training international students for more than 60 years.

Compared with many developed countries whose population exceeds that of Australia, Australia is superior in the overall quality and performance of universities.

2) The government system protects the interests of international students

The Australian government attaches great importance to protecting the interests of international students. They protect students' rights and interests from the education system and prevent students from delaying their studies because of school management problems.

The operating funds of public colleges and universities are mainly allocated by the government, and the funds are relatively stable, and there is basically no risk of bankruptcy. The funds of private colleges and universities mainly come from students' tuition fees or the investment of their churches, or donations from other private institutions.

The Australian government stipulates that all private colleges and universities must join the "ACPET" insurance organization, and "ACPET" will supervise and coordinate the financial operation and management of colleges and universities. If any organization among the members of "ACPET" encounters operational difficulties, "ACPET" will come forward to seek solutions. For example, private college A has difficulties in operation and is facing bankruptcy. "ACPET" will negotiate with all members to accept its students. Under normal circumstances, "ACPET" will designate one or more other member schools to receive students from a college. The tuition fees paid by students in a school need not be paid to the receiving institution.

At present, Chinese are the largest Asian in Australia, accounting for about 2%-3% of Australia's total population. Australia and China have very close economic and trade relations. In recent years, China is one of the biggest buyers of Australian minerals. Therefore, Australian society has a very positive attitude towards Chinese, and they welcome Chinese to integrate into the local society. In recent years, many Chinese have participated in local elections, and Chinese have held important positions in many government departments in Australia. Lawyers, accountants, doctors, architects, engineers, teachers, civil servants and entrepreneurs abound in China.

2) The immigration policy is loose and the standards are clear.

Australia is a typical immigrant country, and its immigration policy is relatively loose.

4. Low unemployment rate and high wages

Australia's good economic development ensures sufficient employment opportunities in Australia. Australia is one of the countries with relatively low unemployment rate in the world, with an average unemployment rate of around 3%.
