Expert migration services,
backed by technology.
SponsorTalent is an Australian sponsorship marketplace run by Keshab Chapagain, a registered migration agent (MARN 1576536) practising in Sydney since 2015. Employers list their business and browse candidates free, and candidates create a standard profile free. Contact details are unlocked for A$30 when one side chooses to contact the other, and candidates can add optional paid badges, such as the Detailed Profile badge (A$60 for 12 months). Visa work is done separately by the practice, not by the marketplace.

Keshab Chapagain
Registered Migration Agent & Founder
Keshab Chapagain is a MARA-registered migration agent (MARN 1576536) and technology entrepreneur based in Sydney, Australia. With deep expertise in Australian migration law and a passion for technology, Keshab founded SponsorTalent to bridge the gap between employers struggling to find skilled workers and candidates seeking sponsorship opportunities.
As the founder of Widen Migration Experts, Keshab has helped many businesses navigate the complexities of employer-sponsored visas. He recognised that the traditional sponsorship process was fragmented, time-consuming, and often inaccessible for smaller businesses. That insight led to SponsorTalent: an open marketplace where candidates, employers and migration agents find each other directly, without a recruiter in the middle.
Migration advice is not given by the marketplace. When you want it, it is provided separately by Keshab under the Migration Act 1958 and the Code of Conduct for registered migration agents. Verify MARN 1576536 at mara.gov.au →
Why SponsorTalent exists
Australia faces persistent skill shortages, and the sponsorship process is complex. An open directory, with the facts that matter shown upfront, helps with both.
Australia's skill shortage
Thousands of Australian businesses struggle to fill critical roles. The skilled occupation lists grow every year, yet connecting employers with the right overseas talent remains difficult and slow. SponsorTalent was built to solve this mismatch.
A complex visa process
Employer sponsorship involves multiple steps: becoming an approved sponsor, nominating an occupation, lodging applications and maintaining compliance. For many businesses, especially SMEs, this complexity is a barrier. We simplify the first step: finding each other.
Facts shown upfront
Candidate profiles show occupation, experience, skills-assessment status and English level before anyone pays. CVs are read automatically at registration to fill in the profile, so employers can judge fit for themselves instead of waiting for a recruiter's shortlist.
Professional and compliant
Migration matters are handled to professional standards and in line with Australian regulation.
MARA registered
Keshab Chapagain is registered with the Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority (OMARA), MARN 1576536. You can verify this registration on the MARA website.

All migration services are provided in compliance with the Migration Act 1958 and the Migration Agents Regulations 1998, under the Code of Conduct for registered migration agents.
Privacy protected
We comply with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Your personal information is handled securely and only used for the purposes disclosed. Privacy Policy
3,500+ approved sponsors
Browse approved employer sponsors sourced from the Department of Home Affairs register. Candidates and agents can unlock verified contact details for A$30.
Agent matching board
