3 IDEAS EXPLAINED

Anet Redmer

The most practical idea (one that could be easily implemented)

A recruiter service will professionally fine-tune the interviewee's CV and optimize it for job applications.Also knows the job market very well and can advise on job openings and visa-sponsoring companies.Can also explain methods of effective networking and how to get in touch with the right people.Can prepare interviewee for interviews.

Engage a headhunter /

recruiter / career coach

The most disruptive idea (one that would make a huge impact, regardless of how feasible or affordable it is)

Digging the tunnel and integrating a high speed rail with a travel time of an hour will get the best of both worlds to the interviewee. He can be in Australia, the country he wants to stay in, at the same time he can be with his family at home in The Netherlands (which he misses from time to time).Australian customs will issue him a commuter's visa.Best of all: he has two countries to apply for jobs, double the chance to score the dream job!

Dig a tunnel from Australia to the

Netherlands and just commute every day.

(Interviewee is Dutch)

Your favorite idea (one idea that you are excited about for whatever reason... you don’t have to justify why)

This is my favorite idea, as the visa issue motivates the interviewee towards absolute excellence - to find his own niche within the coaching business / social science sector he really cares about and to become one of the best in his field.He manages to turn the 'weakness', the 'issue' into a strength and comes out as a winner of his complex situation.A Rock Star knows how to market himself, so he needs to focus on his own brand and marketing.

Become a Rock Star (Key Person of Influence) in your field.

Australia will want you to stay. Everybody will hire you and

sponsor your visa.

Interviewee is in a split situation: on one side, he is proud and happy that he has finished his degree. On the other side, he is leaving uni, a “safe haven”, getting into the working world, not working world, not knowing, what kind of job he can get. In addition the interviewee is a foreigner and will need to be visa-sponsored by his future employer in order to stay in Australia. He is worried, because he does not know, how to prproceed in order to solve his challenges, while his current visa is running out,
