Frequently asked questions

Is SponsorTalent a recruitment agency?

No. SponsorTalent is a marketplace. Overseas and onshore cooks list anonymous profiles; you search them yourself, unlock the ones you want to contact for A$30 incl. GST each, and deal with the candidate directly. There is no placement fee and no commission.

What does it cost to find a sponsored cook in Sydney?

Searching and registering as an employer is free. Unlocking a candidate's contact details costs A$30 incl. GST. A featured job listing is A$149 incl. GST for 30 days and includes five unlock credits. Nothing else is charged by SponsorTalent.

Do I need to be an approved sponsor before I can hire a cook from overseas?

To sponsor a worker on a 482, 494 or 186 visa a business needs Standard Business Sponsorship (or a labour agreement) and an approved nomination for the role. You can search and unlock candidates before that is in place. The sponsorship, nomination and visa are lodged by a registered migration agent; WIDEN Migration Experts (MARN 1576536) can set up the sponsorship.

Are the cooks already in Australia?

4 of the 8 cooks with a Sydney preference are in Australia now on another visa; the rest are offshore. Onshore candidates can usually start sooner, but how long a visa takes depends on the pathway and the Department of Home Affairs, and SponsorTalent makes no promises about timing or outcomes.

How do I post a cook role?

Register free as an employer and post the role. A featured listing (A$149 incl. GST, 30 days) is shown to sponsorship-ready cooks and emailed to matching candidates; applications come to you free of charge.

General information only, not migration advice. SponsorTalent is a marketplace operated by Dynamic Consultancy Pty Ltd; it is not a recruitment agency and does not lodge visas. Migration advice is provided by a registered migration agent (MARN 1576536).
