Australia has a strong economy, a skilled workforce, and a strategic position in the Asia-Pacific region. However, high labor costs and regulatory complexities can be challenging.
In Australia, professional recruitment agency fees range from 22-27% of the first-year annual base salary of a recruited employee. Recruitment agencies also require an upfront retainer and payment in advance installments of the agency fee based on milestones such as start of recruitment, presentation of candidates, and scheduling interviews with a candidate shortlist.

In Australia, the notice period is determined by an employee’s length of employment:

Employees should check their award or employment contract for the notice period set out for resignations.
