Work is an important part of your Working Holiday and we can assist you in finding a job!  Included in all the “Ultimate” packages is membership in Work & Travel Company’s Job Service.  The team in Sydney is there to help you as soon as you want to get started with a job. When you first register, you will be part of the “Priority Work Service.”  This will put you at the top of the list, so you will be the first to hear when a suitable job comes in. They will either call you or send you a text message - our participants love the fact that they can be relaxing on the beach and the work comes to them!  You can also see all the jobs on the internet – allowing you to check the opportunities wherever you are.  Or you can call or visit the Center in Sydney whenever you want to keep yourself informed of new work opportunities.  Most participants are able to find a job easily, and it’s even easier if you are open to more than one kind of job.
