GB, a former colleague of mine got her US ATPLs and has converted it to an Aussie one with a minimum of fuss. A flight test was included and an Air Leg exam but certainly not the entirety of the ATPL subjects. The reason I know this is that although she has an Aussie ATPL, she doesn't qualify for entry into QF due to not having the Aussie subjects- a uniquely QF requirement.

I'm not sure whether DJ of J* require the Aussie subjects or whether they're just happy with the CPL and Aussie subjects or an Aussie ATPL.
If the shortage starts to really bite then perhaps we'll see QF drop the requirements for the Aussie subjects as well and accept either those or the Aussie ATPL.

I suspect I know which one they'll go for!

Unless aircraft has had a 'road to Damascus' style conversion it appears that fearcampaign is not him! I was wrrrrrrrrr......I was wrrrooo......I may not have been correct in my earlier assertion!
