    What are you doing at the moment?

    If you're at school or uni then most of the time you can ask them and they'll be really helpful.

    Otherwise, as with most jobs it's not what you know it's who you know - keep your ears and eyes peeled for elderly relatives saying 'oh your auntie jean's friend is a lawyer in madrid' and adverts in magazines etc. Most large companies have branches abroad so you could contact their HQs and ask about that.

    Have you got ideas about the kind of thing you want to to? If it's bar work or something casual then it should be quite easy, if it's office work etc then you might want to find out quite a lot in advance.

    Umm that prob wasn't v helpful but good luck!

    What u want to do is go to Oz for a years working visa. All you will need is cost of fight (go Standby) and bank account statement that shows you have £2000 ((((borrow £2000 from Friend - or get bank loan -get statement - pay back)))) Take £300 £400. Fly to Perth or darwin ( not Sydney- great place, but to exspensive- you will be home in a mouth) Contact TRAVELFINDERS, they will send u loads of stuff.
