But I need a float plane pilot with "x" now.
Go to DIBP say you have advertised for 3 weeks it does not look good for getting a Australian pilot, I have 4 months max before I will have to close my doors.
* DIBP, show me the proof (books given and advertisement receipts given)
*DIBP how long and how much to train up for this position?
* Company - Depends on the applicant (hrs etc) but from $10,000 to $15,000 would be in the ball park and take up to 8 months
*DIBP We will issue you a 457 valid for 10 moths from today, you need to supply your Australian candidate ready for training within 30 days. We will pay the training cost directly and you will be required to pay back 30% over 12 months from when Australians training is completed.
Company - thank-you.
