Please read
Occupation eligibility is not the same as a job offer
A role being listed as eligible does not mean every employer can sponsor it. The employer must hold the correct sponsor licence, the job must match the right occupation code, the salary must meet the rules and the employer must issue a valid Certificate of Sponsorship.
