Does anyone work for any UK companies that have offered you or you've applied to work in their Australian offices etc. This would be my ideal plan but I'm sure it doesn't happen regularly!

Hi, not UK but from France. A French (but worldwide) company hired me in France almost 2 years ago with all interviews done in Paris. I worked 2 months over there as a 'trial' then I came over here (in Sydney) within the local office.

It's a local contract, local visa (482) and they covered the flight tickets (both me and my partner).

I never applied for anything, Ive set on Linkedin that I was keen for an opportunity in Australia and they contacted me since they couldn't source my skill locally (database engineering)

A company willing to hire me and transfer my visa said (after consulting their lawyer) that a visa transfer is no longer possible? Is that true? I have a 482 visa
