Recruitment

How We Source and Screen Overseas Candidates

Recruiting internationally should not mean taking a gamble on someone you have never met.

We identify potential candidates based on the requirements of your role. We then assess their experience, skills and suitability before they reach you.

We also consider whether the candidate’s circumstances could fit an employer-sponsored pathway where relevant.

You get a clearer picture before investing the little time you have in interviews and recruitment decisions.

Recruitment and Sponsorship Handled Together

Traditional recruitment agencies may focus on finding your next employee. Migration providers focus on the visa side.

At MYAC, we bring the two together.

If sponsorship is appropriate, our recruitment team can work alongside Registered Migration Agents to help navigate the relevant process.

That means fewer handovers and less uncertainty about whether the candidate and role can actually work from a sponsorship perspective.

Talent acquisition and screening

Before a candidate is presented to an employer, our team reviews their qualifications, employment history, references, documentation and overall suitability. For technical, trade and hands-on positions, this may also include practical skills assessments, technical interviews or direct competency verification. The objective is simple: employers should meet candidates who are genuinely capable of performing the role.

Matching to the role, not the job title

We take the time to understand the position, the team, the working environment, the required technical capability and what a successful long-term hire looks like for the employer. Candidates are then matched against those requirements, rather than selected through keyword searches or résumé comparisons alone.

Interview coordination

MYAC coordinates interviews face-to-face, virtually or through targeted international recruitment campaigns and roadshows. Where required, we can assist with interview scheduling, candidate preparation, technical assessments and practical trials to give employers greater confidence in their final selection.

Offer management

Once a preferred candidate is selected, MYAC supports the offer process and helps ensure the proposed terms are commercially competitive and appropriate for the position. Where employer sponsorship is involved, we also consider relevant salary requirements and migration criteria before the matter progresses.

OUR CANDIDATE NETWORK

MYAC maintains a pre-screened database of more than 10,000 candidates spanning trades, hospitality, healthcare, engineering and other skilled occupations. “Pre screened” is doing real work in that sentence: every candidate has already been assessed for genuine skill level, relevant experience and, where relevant, practical competency.

Skilled Worker Recruitment for Australian Businesses

Not every vacancy needs an overseas candidate. But when local recruitment is not delivering, looking further afield can open up a much larger talent pool.

Our skilled worker recruitment Australia service focuses on finding candidates who have the skills, experience and attitude your business needs.

We take the time to understand the role before searching for candidates. That means we are not simply sending CVs your way that don’t tick the boxes.

The aim is a genuine match between the person, the position and your business.

Getting someone through the door is not the finish line.

Moving to Australia for a new job is a big change. Employers also need their new team member to settle in, feel supported and become part of the business.

Where appropriate, we can provide support around onboarding and settlement, helping make the transition smoother for both the employee and employer.

Hiring overseas workers isn’t just about filling a vacancy. It’s about creating a successful employment relationship that lasts.

Visa Sponsorship Managed In-House

This is where MYAC differs from a traditional recruitment agency. Where an employer intends to sponsor a candidate, our in-house OMARA-registered migration professionals can assess the proposed pathway and manage the relevant sponsorship, nomination and visa applications.
Recruitment and migration teams work together from the beginning, helping to identify potential eligibility issues before an employer commits significant time and resources to a candidate.

Integration and Ongoing Support

A placement or visa grant is not the end of the process. MYAC can support candidates as they prepare to enter the workplace, relocate and adjust to employment in Australia.
We also maintain contact with employers and employees after commencement to identify concerns early, support workplace integration and encourage stronger long-term retention.

FAQs

Can you help if we have never sponsored a worker before?

Yes. We can help you understand the recruitment and sponsorship process and connect you with the appropriate migration support.

What if the candidate is perfect but their visa does not allow them to work for us?

Don’t assume the candidate is automatically ruled out. Their visa status and circumstances should be checked to see whether another lawful pathway may be available.

Do candidates pay you to guarantee them a job?

No genuine recruitment service should promise a job simply because someone pays a fee. We focus on matching candidates with genuine employment opportunities based on their skills and experience.
