Excellent working holiday intro tour in Melbourne

February 17, 2025by: Alexandra Paul - United StatesProgram: Melbourne Gap Year: Paid Work Opportunities in Australia
10

I recently joined the Melbourne Gap Year tour with Grabatour, and it was hands down the perfect way to kick-start my Australian adventure! From the moment I arrived, everything was well-organized, making the transition into a new country smooth and stress-free. The itinerary was a great mix of practical support and fun experiences. The team helped us set up essentials like bank accounts, tax file numbers, and SIM cards, which saved me so much time and hassle. They also provided great advice on job hunting, which gave me a real head start in finding work. Beyond the practical stuff, the city tours were a highlight. We explored Melbourne’s famous laneways, checked out the street art, and visited St. Kilda Beach, all while learning about the city’s culture. There were also plenty of opportunities to socialize, and I met an amazing group of people from all over the world. The support from their local team didn’t stop when the tour ended—they were always there to help with any questions I had. If you’re looking for an exciting, hassle-free way to start your working holiday in Australia, I highly recommend this tour!

A Guide to Psychology Jobs Abroad

Why Work Abroad in Psychology

Working abroad in psychology can be an advantage for professionals trained in the U.S., because many countries lack the mental health professionals required to meet local needs and therefore actively recruit mental health workers.

Jobs abroad in psychology can also be a great opportunity for those with minimal experience or those who are a few steps away from full licensure. Standard licensed psychologists in the U.S. and Canada must have their doctorate degree before practicing, but that isn’t the case around the world. In many countries, a bachelor’s degree in psychology is sufficient enough to work in psychology.

Training and licensing requirements differ from country to country, and so do cultural standards and language challenges. Working in psychology abroad will expose psychologists to new cultural practices, expand their cross-cultural communication abilities, and may even teach them brand new language skills altogether.
