Skilled Migrant Employment Register

 

Western Australia (WA) has recently experienced its lowest unemployment rates since the resource boom and has a widespread need for skilled workers across many sectors and parts of the State. 

The Skilled Migrant Employment Register is a free initiative supporting employers and skilled migrants to connect to build the WA workforce. 

If you would like more information or to meet with us to discuss your needs, please contact us at jobconnect@dtwd.wa.gov.au.
