thanks mate, yeah no immediate plans atm

anyone have good recs for coliving in melbourne/sydney? i'll probably do a month in each city but not down for hostel life

Hey folks! In Thailand, if you are a foreign remote worker wanting to stay long term, there is a company that you can just pay some monthly/yearly fee to arrange a work permit for you. Your salary from your client will go through them, so it's as if your client is their client so things are within legal bounds. Does anyone have any leads if there is one like that in Australia?

Hi U03AVJ9CH1Q. I’m coming to Sydney next month (only for 12 days unfortunately) and I’m tackling the high prices of accommodation. Which hostel did you book and how did you like it? 422 for 10 days sounds like a dream right about now.

I doubt there is such a service, cause it's quite a PITA for an Australian company to sponsor a work visa (been there), not every company is eligible for it, the process is lengthy and expensive, not really scalable

Deel doesn't seem to process work visas for foreign workers, do they?

dm'd you!

hey 👋 could someone advise - how is the annual salary of 170k aus in Canberra, for a local senior (~10years) frontend developer? low, ok ,very good? what would be the excellent compensation?

including superannuation or no? anyway, I'd say it's on the higher end in Sydney, so even more so in Canberra

thx. what would you consider a fair salary (both for employee and employer) in a young startup, if no stock optons in the package?

I reckon it's a decent pay. especially considering lower cost of living in Canberra. the question is do you really wanna live there? 🙂 but you've probably already done your research and decided

won’t be there permanently, more like periodically 2-3 months. I believe it may not be like Melbourne but wouldn’t think it’s any bad either 😉 not about the place, more about opportunity

Even people from Canberra run away as soon as they can. It's like The Hague of Australia 😂

170k is IMHO excellent for a senior (paid more) frontend developer (paid less) in Canberra (paid less) at a startup (paid less). You’d struggle to get a similar offer under the same conditions, but you could exceed 200k in Sydney at an established company

If your an expat, 3 months in Canberra would probably be a very fun way of experiencing australian culture. Canberra is very chill compared to the bigger cities things are more relaxed and slow moving, you would probably need to buy a car though if you want to explore areas outside of the city but def worth it.

$170k is in higher end, but still 1 below the highest tax bracket. If its a contract job though thats probably more standard but i wouldn't be complaining.

Great advice in this thread. Just adding my ➕ that 170k is quite good. You can always get more money _somewhere_, but if the role is good that money is definitely not bad.

There isn't I'm afraid. You can do a working holiday visa and work locally.

But there are no extended visas for foreign workers.

As an Australian I can tell you that our visa laws are kinda painful and annoying.

Hi everyone! How are you finding accommodation in Australia?

oh ok. Thanks a lot Mitch simple_smile
