According to the employment regulations for overseas students in Australia, students must be at least 18 years old and hold a student visa that allows them to work, and the working hours should not exceed 40 hours every two weeks if they want to work smoothly during their study in Australia. However, if the work they take part in is part of the internship, the time is not limited. At present, students can work in restaurants, bars, supermarkets, pharmacies and other units. Special attention should be paid to illegal work here to avoid unnecessary losses.

Regulations on the Employment of Overseas Students in Australia

1. International students applying for employment in Australia must be at least 18 years old;

2. You must have a student visa that allows you to work;

3. The government also stipulates that students enrolled in full-time courses can only work for 40 hours every two weeks at most, and must be at least 18 years old;

4. You can only work full-time during holidays;

5. If the work you are involved in is an internship stipulated by the Australian university curriculum, it will not be included in the above time. Some Australian universities include internships in their courses. If these internships are part of an approved course and registered, overseas students can also participate. Even volunteers are free, and working hours count.

Therefore, if you violate these regulations while studying abroad, once you are found, your visa will probably be cancelled and sent back to China!

In fact, the original intention of Australia to allow student visa holders to work in Australia is to hope that international students can better exercise their language skills through social work and integrate into Australian society. However, if international students delay their studies in order to earn money by working, neither the Australian government nor universities want to see such a result. Therefore, the Government has always been very strict in this respect. Once foreign students who work illegally are found, their visas for studying in Australia will be cancelled mercilessly.

Workplaces for Australian students
