The new Skilled Migrant Employment Register is a free initiative supporting employers and skilled migrants to connect to build the Western Australian workforce, which is currently experiencing a shortage of skilled workers across many sectors and parts of the state.
Skilled migrants seeking employment in Western Australia can connect with the Western Australian workforce by completing the connect with the Western Australia Workforce registration form. Once registered, WA Migration Services will publish the details of skilled migrants, such as preferred occupation, current location, and employment intentions on the Skilled Migrant Employment Register, indicating to employers the interest to gain employment in Western Australia.
Employers seeking to build their workforce have the opportunity to review the Skilled Migrant Employment Register to identify talent that may align with their business needs and connect with skilled migrants.
