I am a malaysian architecture students currently studying my part 1 and soon to complete it in august. Wanted to study in australia for my part 2 most probably in Monash University. I planning to work at Australia after my studies and thinking of migrating as well in the future.
I have heard from a few people saying that getting a job in Australia is hard as a international students? (after graduating). I need advices and suggestion.
Generally speaking, jobs in architecture are tough, period. I assume you mean Melbourne, Australia as opposed to the larger scope of Australia. Regardless, when you graduate from your Masters (which is what I assume you mean by Part 2), you will more than likely be eligible for a Graduate Visa which would last you for 2 years. You should be able to find work (assuming of course you are good enough) during this time, and with this experience potentially get a work sponsored residency. If you find a job, and you're good at it, companies will often fight to keep you - by sponsoring you. At least that's been my experience, and I've witnessed it happen for plenty of my Malaysian counterparts working and living in Melbourne now.
TL;DR If you're good at what you do, you should be fine.
