i spent 2 years there on a working holiday visa, fantastic country. just do your homework and weigh different options. the only possible ways i could think of would be either to be a skilled migrant visa or a student visa.. to get sponsored, you usually have to work in australia before that. there are many people there looking to extend their visas.
