Industrial design jobs in Australia

[Bellini]

Hi All

My boyfriend and I are interested in a new life down under. He has a design degree which is on the skills list so he would be the man applicant - how much work experience would he have to have in his field or would he be able to aply anyhow? He has mainly worked freelance, not much though and as the economy has rendered design jobs almost non existant he can't find a job anywhere.

We would really like a point in the right direction, I have already looked at immi.gov etc b ut of anyone has experience of this I'd love to hear it.

Going to websites of home .gov's won't help as this is the remit of the Australian Govt.
Either go onto the web of Australian govt. or give Australia House a shout (& best of luck!)
