Hi,
just personal experience - thought it might be helpful. I would take your job offer in UK first, gain some experience and then come over to Aus.
reason I say this as you need a job offer before you can become registered, it’s really difficult to find an employer who will take you on prior to having registration.
i worked for a couple of years in uk first, and believe my experience is why I was offered work. Would have been a lot harder as a new grad as competing against Australian new grad OTs who also have registration. From what I’ve heard from students here it’s competitive.
good luck!

Hey guys, has anyone tried for work in rural areas just to get their stage 2 done? I was offered a job in NSW health in the hunter valley district a few months back. I currently work in NT, Im sure you have looked into rural areas but thought it was worth mentioning

I rang and spoke to the managers directly and explained the situation and my experience to get an idea of what they thought. I was fed up of applying for jobs and not hearing back.
If they’re looking for someone with your experience they are more likely to give you a chance
