Why Should I do this and is there a catch?
Because you can! You will probably never get the chance to do anything like this again and you will rightly be proud of having lived and worked and been part of the great Australian Outback.
It’s a 12 month flexible program that allows you to depart when you want to and work for say 3-6 months, travel and then come back to another guaranteed job if you want one.
The only catch is that you need to be up for some hard work in challenging locations, but the rewards are immense. You’ll get the true Oz experience in the Outback, with its incredible space and enormous star lit skies. Communities are small and you’ll get to know everyone fast, sitting out in the evenings with cans of beer. Your social life will be centered on the workplace and your colleagues. Your earnings will come in very handy for travel or simply financing your trip.
The induction and training will give you the confidence and knowledge you need to make a good impression on your employers and to get the best out of this experience. You join a group of like-minded people. All participants get an introduction to Outback farming life regardless of which job you are planning to go to. You will have chance to muster cattle, drive a tractor, ride a motorbike, change a tyre and much more. If you have opted for a hospitality or teaching job you will receive an introduction to these too.
Where in Australia?
Your job and training course will be based in rural and Outback Australia. Most jobs are in Queensland, but you might choose to work elsewhere in Australia.
Cost and Eligibility
£995 for 3 to 12 months in a guaranteed job with free food and accommodation earning around £700 per month. Includes a 9 day well regarded job training course. Budget extra for flights to Brisbane (about £900 from UK) that Oyster can book for you.
To be eligible, you need a Working Holiday Visa (currently £100) that is available to passport holders from over 20 nationalities who are 18-30. You also need to be able to speak English and be capable of working hard in a rural environment.
