This is a tricky plan as most employers would prefer those with PR visa. Just to give you a bit of a perspective, my husband went back to Australia after finishing his engineering degree in Germany took 3 months to get a job in Sydney ( I haven't met at that time) considering he had the German education which we all are aware that it's known for engineering and that he's Swiss-German but also has an Australian passport.
