    LBFoot,

    1st you need to find out which Visa type you may be eligible for
    http://www.immi.gov.au/
    then check registration requirements
    http://www.ahpra.gov.au/ and http://www.anzpac.org.au/

    Not all employers will offer sponsorship for Visas, so you need to check this out. Sponsorship is more likely in the more rural/remote areas.

    There is still plenty of work for podiatrists in both the public and private sector (though public a bit tighter of late due to gov spending cuts)

    wages vary considerably, with a new graduate wage of about $60K up to around $100k for an experienced pod in the public sector, and similar offers in private practice, but may be based on fee sharing.
