  • Gather information about the role, like the job title, location and the Australia and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO) code and skill level
  • Prepare your documents
  • Advertise the role and depending on the job’s ANZSCO skill level, may need to engage with Work and Income.
