Brought to you by the AWA QLD Young Water Professionals, the panel will feature insights, tips and advice from experienced recruiters, hiring managers and migrants currently working in water.

Our broad range of panelists will be sharing their experiences, discussing visa pathways and providing insights and tips for job applications, before answering general questions from the audience.

Come and build your pathway into Australia’s water industry.
