Cynical - good name BTW!
be prepared to earn less than half the average australian salary...
Your post is not correct and indeed, misleading. To be granted a 457 Visa the offered salary
must exceed the TSMIT of $51,400 and be a "market salary". If a flying school wishes to employ a flying instructor from overseas, the offered salary
must exceed $51,400;
must be the same salary as offered to other Australians doing the same job; and if any Australian doing the same job is paid less that $51,400, the Visa will not be granted.
Makes your post kind of redundant?
And there are
professional flying schools that pay fair full time, part time or casual wages as per the Award.
Clare ... A position with ANZSCO Code 411112 does qualify for a 457 Visa, although an applicant will need to check the Australian qualification requirements to ensure they meet that qualification.
