International students who study in Australia may apply for permanent residence on a student visa and do not require the employer’s support. They must achieve at least 65 points to be approved for the PR.
In Australia, there are three ways to apply for public relations jobs online: family stream, workstream or business investment stream. For 18 months to 4 years after graduation, students from abroad are generally granted a temporary graduate visa under class 485, which permits them to live and work in Australia.
However, to apply for PR, international students must apply for a Skilled Independent Visa while studying and obtain PR before completing their studies. Their PR applications are assessed based on a points system and must score at least 65 points. Applications may be submitted via the Australian Home Affairs website.
