Government figures have shown that Europe's rising unemployment has led to a rise in the number of British and Irish skilled migrants applying to come to Australia. However, officials have noticed that skilled migration figures from Greece remain low.
This is a concern as the West Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry forecast that the state will requrie a further 500,000 workers by the year 2020. It is worth noting that areas such as Melbourne, Sydney and small towns like Dandenong will also need extra workers.
According to the Department of Immigration and Citizenship, Europeans are interested in Australian jobs. Unfortunately, this interest does not seem to be translating into a rise in skilled labour migration. Experts in Greece believe that office workers are simply moving to other European countries as it is easier than moving halfway across the world.
When push comes to shove there is a tremendous amount of opportunity in Australia. Aside from regular jobs, migrants also have the option of working in mines. While this is hard, physical labour, it is also very well-paid. People in these jobs have the potential to save thousands of dollars a month.
There are several ways that the Australian government can go about attracting skilled migrants. The most effective is launching a marketing campaign. This campaign should include a mix of television, Print and online advertising. Ideally, printing services will be used to create Brochures. These brochures can be given to overseas schools and universities. They can also be handed out at events like travel expos.Get a Free Quote for Print Get a Free Quote for Brochures
