Interview skills for Australian study visa application

Australian study visas are divided into Australian study electronic visas and ordinary visas. However, applying for an Australian study visa requires a strict interview.

Prepare sufficient materials. Before going to Australia for a visa interview, you must fully prepare all visa materials, including passport, ID card, visa application form and photos, as well as English scores, etc. Note that among the academic materials, do not ignore the original academic degree and Chinese and English certificates Original documents and transcripts in Chinese and English.

Some applicants speak faster due to nervousness or wanting to express themselves too well. Don't be hasty, speak slowly if you have something to say. Because many applicants are not very fluent in English, the visa officer will not know what you are saying if you speak quickly. At the same time, you need to respond quickly. Don’t let the visa officer ask you questions or wait too long to answer them. When you didn’t hear the question clearly, you can politely ask the visa officer to say it again. Don’t remain indifferent.

Follow the visa officer with your eyes. Please note when applying for a visa to Australia: In the process of communication between people, eye contact is a necessary manifestation of politeness, which shows that you pay attention to the other person. The visa officer interviews you with an equal attitude, so you don't need to be afraid of his eyes. When speaking, you should communicate with him with your eyes. Look directly at the other person and don't look around. It will affect the examiner's trust in you. Eyes are the windows to the soul, let him feel that your soul is open.

Having a reasonable study abroad plan, no intention to immigrate and planning to return to your country after completing your studies is one of the conditions that can guarantee you a visa interview in the United States. In addition, you must clearly explain your future development so that the visa officer can hear it clearly, instead of being thought that you will immigrate and stay in the United States to work, otherwise it will increase the risk of visa rejection.

Be honest and positive. Attitude is everything! Honesty is the foundation, answer the visa officer’s questions truthfully, don’t lie, don’t treat them as fools, otherwise they will be very angry and the consequences will be serious! Don't pretend to understand and talk nonsense. The interview is a communication process. If international students only passively answer the visa officer’s questions, they may not be able to fully express themselves and convey the information to the visa officer.
