<\/i> Those who want to learn from a real-life sponsorship success story<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nI myself progressed from a working holiday visa to an Assistant in Nursing (AIN) role, and eventually obtained a sponsorship visa.
\nI wrote this article with the hope that it can help others who are facing similar challenges and seeking guidance on the path to sponsorship and permanent residency<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2708\ufe0fMy Visa Journey: Working Holiday \u2192 AIN \u2192 Sponsorship<\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhy I Chose Australia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
For someone like me who is not fond of the cold, Australia's warm and comfortable climate<\/span> was a major attraction.<\/p>\n\nAdditionally, the environment where English is the second language for many people<\/span> was one of the reasons why I felt comfortable living here despite my concerns about the language.<\/p>\n\nFurthermore, Australia is a society where there is a deep understanding of diversity and a strong sense of tolerance towards other cultures<\/span>. \nEven in cities like Sydney, it's not just about high-rise buildings; there are also beaches, bushwalks, and nature is easily accessible. The spacious and open land was also a major attraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Reason I Started Working as an AIN<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Even before coming to Australia,
<\/p>\n\n\n
\"Since I\u2019m going abroad, I want to make the most of my experience and work in a field where I can apply it.\"<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\nI thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As I looked into it<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Based on my experience working as a
nurse in Japan<\/strong>, one of the jobs that I could start relatively smoothly is AIN (Assistant in Nursing)<\/strong>.<\/div>\n\n\n\nI learned this and set it as my goal to obtain this qualification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I first arrived in Sydney,
I immediately started attending school. Although I faced challenges with the differences in language and culture,....<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"I want to be of help to someone in the field.\"<\/div>\n\n\n\n
With that mindset, I was able to approach it positively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
After obtaining the qualification, I started working as a casual staff member at an aged care facility<\/strong>. \nAround that time, there were gradual developments regarding visas<\/strong> and the sponsorship system<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n The path may open up from here.\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
I remember hearing positive voices from those around me as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At first, there were so many things I didn\u2019t understand, but
little by little, I got used to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n \"If I continue with this job, it may lead to the next step.\"\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
And I became hopeful about the future.<\/p>\n\n\n
Looking back, I believe that the step I took at that time has led to the way I work now and to obtaining my visa.<\/mark>
\nI truly feel that I\u2019m glad I had the courage to take action.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcacHow I Overcame My Concerns with English and the Work Environment<\/h2>\n\n\n\nI was terrible at listening, and every day felt like a constant wave of anxiety.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to English, listening was especially difficult<\/strong>,
and in the beginning, every day felt like \"I couldn\u2019t understand a single word of what they were saying...\"<\/p>\n\n\n\nI couldn\u2019t even understand everyday conversations, and at the facility, I often found myself confused by the fast-paced interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I felt like \"
not being able to speak English well = not being able to do my job<\/strong>\",
and there were times when I lost my confidence.<\/div>\n\n\n\n
