Temporary visas are again divided into subclasses:
Temporary skill shortage Visa: This temporary visa lets an employer sponsor a suitably skilled worker to fill a position they can’t find a suitably skilled Australian to fill.

Skilled-recognized graduate Visa: Visa allows recent engineering graduates to live, work or study in Australia for up to 18 months. You must have completed a degree or higher qualification from a specified institution within the past 2 years and be under 31 years of age.
Skilled Regional (Provisional) Visa: For skilled workers who want to live and work in regional Australia. They can bring their family members as well. If an employee is granted this visa, then they might be able to apply for a Skilled Regional (Permanent) Visa.
Business innovation and investment (Provisional) Visa: Visa allows an employee to own and manage a business in Australia, conduct business and investment activity in Australia or undertake an entrepreneurial activity in Australia.
Depending on the type of visa that meets the employees’ requirements, they can apply accordingly.
To apply for the visa the employee needs to submit an EOI (Expression of interest) on SkillSet, which is an online system to receive and process applications for skilled migration in Australia.
