What jobs are there not enough people for in Australia?
Because
 my mum is from ireland and when she was in her 20's she worked in 
Australia as a nurse and when she went back to ireland (because she was 
missing her family too much) they tried to make her stay with money and 
stuff as they had such a lack of nurses in Australia and am just 
wondering what other jobs they need in australia?

There
 has always been a demand for good hairdressers in Australia.  I've 
heard that to become qualified it is quite a long apprenticeship though.
Here's a list of vacancies at present.

Nurses are always in demand too and many of my UK female friends here in
 Australia have gained visas through that avenue.

Competent, honest and effective Politicians.
We just cannot find enough of them.
Out of 22 million people , all we get is liars and cheats.

Our
 list of needed occupations is the Skilled Occupations List (SOL). If 
you don't have qualifications and experience in one of the jobs on 
there, you will not get a work visa unless you have state government or 
employer sponsorship.

The
 MODL list given in the first answer was revoked on 8 February this year
 and is no longer valid. Hairdresser is one of the trades that was on 
the MODL and is not on the new SOL.
