Pilot studies in oz region

Hi there.
I am a Swedish private pilot thinking about going commercial. I nowadays fly in Sweden but lived in Sydney a few years back And absolutely love the place. I'm thinking of upgrading my ppl to cpl and was thinking I might do it in Sydney @basair
What does the market look like in oz?
What would be the best way to obtain cpl in oz?
any other schools to recommend?

If the CPL is your only qualification, a residential/work Visa is impossible.

Daniel, you can come to Australia on a working visa, but can only stay for one year. It can be extended to two years by working in certain industries, but aviation is not one of them.

There is a very very low chance that you'll find any operator in Australia who will hire you on the basis of a working visa, especially if you've already wasted a lot of your time on the visa during training.

Being a pilot is not on the skilled occupation list, and they won't grant you a visa. There are more than enough brand new Australian pilots out there.

Africa could be a better solution for you.
