[Melbourne-pm] [Sydney-pm] YAPC::NA 2015

[Dean Hamstead]

Most recruiters arent aware that Australians can use our own E-3 Visa
rather than having to fight for H1B's. 

Look them up on wikipedia. The tl;dr is: 

 	* 2 year duration (vs 1 year in H1B)
 	* unlimited renewals (vs 3x in H1B)
 	* spouse automatically gets E-3 visa too (vs non-working visa in H1B)
 	* 10,000 available, only 3,000 issued last year (vs massive line for
H1B)

There's a lot of great people here and have a wide variety of projects and groups. We have a lot of remotes (IIRC 25 or so), but the extreme timezone differences might make working remotely in AU interesting. If you're good enough, I imagine the company would work with you on visas where necessary. If you have any questions, please ask. I'm happy to put anyone in touch with our internal recruiter as well.
