Australia always needs fruit pickers. It is hard work and you are normally paid by volume but can be by the hour or week. Tree picking uses ladders and ground picking means lots of bending over which can be hard on the back. The National Harvest Labour Information telephone line is good place to start looking for work 1800 062 332.
This isn’t as glorious and romantic as you might think. Picking fruit and vegetables is absolutely backbreaking work, and not for the light-hearted. Additionally, the money really isn’t that good unless you’re willing to put in a full day of extremely hard labor. It’s also important to remember that this is Australia, and that there isn’t any air conditioning to be had while you’re working in the field.

It also produces some of the best pearls in the world. Casual work can be picked up all year round but the busiest season is the harvest season from April/May through to September/October when most places double their amount of staff (most of which are backpackers). The pay ranges from $120 to $145 a day. Different pearling companies have different rates and rosters, so the frequency of work varies.
