Here is a cut and paste from the Aussie Union PUBLIC forum (nothing seekrit here)
You might like to look at the following link which explains how Airservices deals with previously trained and licensed ATCs:
http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/...pplicants%20wi th%20previous%20ATC%20experience.pdf
Other information related to ATC recruitment, selection and employment can be found at:

I understand that Commonwealth Government policy would prevent Airservices' from providing you with sponsorship for immigration purposes, hence, you will need to obtain permanent residency status before we would be able to consider an application for employment.
If you have any other queries, please don't hesistate to contact me directly at the following email address:
