Australia is a country with a lot of opportunity. The area of Australia is almost 2.5 times the area of India and still its population is less than the population of Mumbai. Australia is gifted with abundant natural resources, has a developed economy, a small but highly skilled workforce and an ever growing market for multiple industries. For those with a keen eye for detail – this truly is a land of opportunity!

Australia is a huge island with a very small population. It, however is one of the most ambitious country in the World. While China was developing its economy, particularly its manufacturing sector, Australia was smartly integrating itself into the Global economy by making upgrades to its financial and manufacturing sector.

By integrating its economy with major Global Financial Hubs, it is seen at par with the most advanced countries in the World. This has helped it to attract investors and convince businesses to set up shop in Australia. Unlike China, it does not have a lot of manpower to be called a major manufacturing hub but it’s located very close to the Americas, Asia & Africa. This makes it an attractive manufacturing hub. Due to the unavailability of manpower in large numbers, most businesses setup technologically advanced factories that are not labour intensive. Even the labour that is used is highly skilled as compared to other economies of the World. This has made Australia a highly specialized economy for specialty manufacturing.

Now Australia aims to replicate the same success in the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance Sectors. Australia is primarily trying to replicate the successful formulae of London and UK. Most financial hubs are filled with and operated by expats who usually are the sharpest brains and the smartest people of the World. It is the actions of these people that runs all major financial corporations of the World. In order to attract the best talent of the World, the Australian Govt has invested heavily in building World class Universities that can be compared with the Harvards and the Cambridges of the World. The Govt expects these Universities to attract the best talent, train them in the financial arts practiced around the World and then get them to make Australian cities global financial hubs.

One such world class University is the University of Western Sydney. For Indian students, BSE Institute Ltd (BIL) has tied up with the University of Western Sydney and they jointly offer a 2 year MBA that is recognized across the Globe. Students completing the course have a track record of bagging a job where the average salary of each professional is AUD $50,000 per annum.

The Australian Govt supports students who are not placed immediately. All students who are not placed immediately after college get a 2 year work search visa that allows them to look for a job for 2 years. This is considered to be the best solution for all students who aim to migrate or work for a long term in Australia.

The actions of the Australian Govt highlight its intent of building a World class financial hub. the visa offer also highlights its seriousness in attracting the best talent from across the globe. Learning and growing in an environment that is changing rapidly is one of the rarest privileges that many senior professionals fight for. Australia is poised for exponential growth and it is welcoming focused individuals with open arms. Opportunity is knocking – time to open your doors!!
