Questions before you start
Can I use it without needing 88 days?
Yes. get88.au also suits regional or backpacker-type job searches without an 88-day goal or a working holiday visa, when the available employers match your role and location. Check coverage before planning a campaign. You need the appropriate permission to work before starting a job; get88 does not arrange visas or sponsorship.
Save your work and region preferences in Automation, or browse the shared free employer library and apply on your own. Browsing the library does not change your Automation preferences or start applications.
How do I find regional work for my 88 days?
For your 88-day hospitality search, we check employer locations against the official work areas. get88 helps you find and contact regional employers across Queensland, the Northern Territory, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania and New South Wales. Coverage varies by town and role. Set your work and region preferences, approve your message and CV, then get88 sends individual applications from your Gmail to the hand-verified employers on the list for you. The Get88 Method can send up to 100 personalised applications a day. Paid campaigns are ranked around your setup before sending, and recently used venues cool down before another get88 campaign can send to them.
Each state has a page listing its towns by venue count. Browse regional work in the Northern Territory or a town page such as hospitality venues in Darwin.
Applications sent, but no replies?
Before increasing volume, check employer fit, the hiring contact, your message and CV, availability and any sending errors. Work through the no-reply checklist and use Resume Check to review your CV. Change what you can verify and check your application history in the dashboard; a larger batch cannot fix an unsuitable target or a missing attachment.
What does get88 not do?
- Employer contacts, not confirmed vacancies. Coverage varies by town and role. Check the list for employers that match your search, then ask them about current opportunities.
- No job guarantees. get88 sends the applications; whether a venue is hiring that week is out of anyone's hands.
- No blasting. Emails go out one at a time, up to 100 a day, with no BCC or mailing list. New campaigns target new employers by default. An owner of the Get88 Method must choose explicitly to contact previous employers again.
- No reading your inbox. get88 never sees your password and has no permission to read your Gmail or contacts. Replies stay between you and the venue.
Read the FAQ for answers about refunds, Google permissions and whether get88 is legitimate.
Whether your work counts also depends on your role and visa. See the 417 and 462 specified-work rules.
