Hi, I am thinking of moving to Australia, and I would like to get an information about the job possibilities there.
I work as a speech and language pathologist but English is not my mother tongue so I doubt that I could get an Independent skilled visa as an SLP at first. Ideally, my plan would be to go to Australia and work in some similar field for a year or two, in order to improve my English. Then I would get my skills assessed by SpeechPathologyAustralia (and hopefully would get a permission to work as SLP).
My question is: what kind of work should I look for? Would I be able to work as an Individual Asisstant for children with special disabilities, or some similar type of job? If so, where could I get such information?
Also, If anyone had moved there as an SLP, I would be very grateful for any kind of information or personal experience shared, about the assessment, Occupational English Test, finding a job, etc.
Thanks a million!
