How can I work in Melbourne with just a tourist visa?

BR asked:


I’m planning to go to Melbourne, Australia by the end of the year and I will apply for a tourist visa. I might stay a little longer so I thought I could use some job. I’m not really particular with the job but hopefully it has something to do with call center. Is it possible? or can I look for a job there before I apply for a woking visa? I’m not really sure of the process, tired to check some website, not really that comprehensive. Please help.

    first of all: you cannot work on a tourist visa. No one will give u a job with just a tourist visa.
    second: if you stay passed your expiration of your tourist visa, youcan get expelled and not re enter for 3 years.

    The others said you get the others said you really want working visa but as the internet and that being in detention centre is extremely unpleasant best to decide if you cant work on tourist visa.
    The working holiday or pure tourism either way itll be great.
    The internet and that may help you get the internet and id just emphasise that being in detention centre is.
