I recommend you are aware of the employers responsibility before continuing the process and ensure you abide by the immigration laws;

It is a criminal offence to "knowingly or recklessly" hire an illegal worker either as an employee or as a contractor. Anyone convicted of this offence can face a fine of up to $13,200 or two year’s imprisonment as an individual or fines of $66,000 if it is a company that commits the offence.
