Hello

Hi, my name is Sonny (childhood nickname, which stuck)

I am 19 and i am looking to move to Oz, there is nothing here (in the uk) for me at all.

from what i can gather it would be near impossible for me to do that. I have mainly admin/office experience.

anyone have any advise?

Sonny

Hi Sonny

I am not a great expert but I would think that a student visa to study something on the skills wanted list would be a good option.
Try going along to an Expo and speak to the further education people and some agencies.

Or search for agents and ask advise, most will give a free initial consultation.

Have a look around this site and see how other people are going, there are lots of different options depending on your skills and experience.

Sonny,

I would consider using the Working Holiday Maker visa to get yourself to Australia:
Working Holiday Visa (Subclass 417)

If you can then find yourself an employer that is happy to sponsor you might then be able to extend your visit through an employer sponsored visa (subclass number 457).

Good luck!
