Employer Sponsored Visas are a category of Australian Visa that allows employers to sponsor highly skilled non-Australian workers to fill vacancies within their business.
Sponsoring a non-Australian worker is a strategy many organisations are using to ensure their company is staffed with the best and brightest available, globally. In most cases the business, the position and the individual are assessed against the criteria set by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC).
