Work...................... and Surf in South Australia !!

Koala catcher, Shark tagger, Beer taster, Roo Poo harvester, Shark personality profiler, Penguin home remodeler  

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 11 August, 2010 : - - Australian state South Australia is using exotic jobs like koala catcher, shark tagger and beer taster, trying to lure young, British workers to head down under for some adventure and maybe a new life.

The South Australian government has launched a campaign to encourage 18 to 30-year-old Britons to come on a working-holiday visa with the chance of getting their dream role. Other jobs advertised include a shark personality profiler at Port Lincoln, a Fairy Penguin home remodeler on Kangaroo Island, and a "roo poo" harvester.

"This isn't about one job that everyone has to compete for, but rather about showing people that South Australia offers more exciting work and travel options than anywhere else in the world," said South Australia's London-based agent general Bill Muirhead in a statement. "This is the first time these jobs have collectively been released and with no previous experience necessary, we're offering people a genuine chance to get away from it all."
