- 1). Acquire relevant qualifications such as Technical and Further Education (TAFE) certificates, heavy vehicle license, first aid certificates, or accreditation from the Mining and Resource Contractors Safety Training Association (MARCSTA). While you can work in an Australian mine with no qualifications, you will have access to limited job opportunities without the licenses or certifications listed above.
- 2). Prepare a resume to showcase your qualifications, skills and experience relevant to mining operations.
- 3). Find job opportunities in the mining industry. Search on mining company websites or general employment websites. Most Australian mining companies have websites with career pages that list job opportunities. The Australian government's geoscience department also maintains a list of career websites for the mining industry.
- 4). Apply for a mining job by sending your resume and other required documents to prospective employers. Follow the application instructions on the job advertisement.
