Success Story - Australia provides a better work life balance
After completing his Masters degree at the Australian National University, Brazilian student Elton De Simone Carneiro decided to stay and work in Australia 'to learn about a different culture'.
Elton found work through the Australian Government's Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme working for Stepsoft, a specialist IT company.
'Here I have more free time than when I worked for a similar IT company in Brazil,' Elton said.
'I've been in Canberra since 2004 and I love it here.
'The work and life balance is excellent.'
Stepsoft Web Services Manager, Melanie Rooney, said the company has found an exceptional talent in Elton.
'He brings important technical skills and the experience of working with overseas companies,' Melanie said.
Elton said Brazilians seeking a new experience should consider working in Australia.
'I'm happy I did. Working in Australia has given me the opportunity to learn about a different culture and see things with a broader perspective.'
