Finding seasonal work and farm work

 

Fruit picking jobs are mainly relevant to those on a Working Holiday Visa. Most fruit picking jobs that are available as part of the Working Holiday Visa are seasonal or temporary, and require neither skills nor specific experience. Working Holiday Visa jobs are generally paid the minimum wage (AUD 16.87 per hour in Australia, NZD 14.25 per hour in New Zealand). Salaries can be lower in rural areas but workers often benefit from discounted accommodation and meals.

Advantages of working on a farm

 

Seasonal work is generally easy to obtain since it requires neither skill nor specific experience and above all, requires no specific language knowledge. Millions of backpackers and Working Holiday Visa are employed in harvest jobs each year. In Australia, for example, many travellers decide to work and travel for up to 12 months following the famous " Harvest Trail".

 

  • You save money as opportunities to spend money in the countryside are few!
  • Sociable, with plenty of opportunities to meet other backpackers
  • You improve your English before you start looking for another job
  • You get to explore the rural way of life and traditional farms.
  • You can apply for a second Working Holiday Visa after 3 months working in rural areas
