Also, the above changes to the working holiday visa were recommended and DIAC decided not to accept the recommendations. In answer to the teacher, the working holiday visa is just that - a working holiday, work should be incidental and to fund your travel, not start your career. You should apply for a skilled migrant visa or look for a work sponsor.
