For example, companies in Switzerland as strict as it is employ foreigners (non-eu citizens) with background in data analysis or it skills generally. Data analyst have starting salaries of about $70k per annum there and edx courses are accepted.

Everywhere have skills in demand and is left for you to know these skills and work towards it.

EMMAACHILE:
You can study those courses irrespective of background. Eg read here https://www.edx.org/course/data-analysis-for-social-scientists-0 from mitx.
Some of these courses can be used to work anywhere or count towards graduate studies abroad.



@EMMAACHILE, please throw more light on this courses and the prospect of a new immigrant getting a job in canada

It's good to have options lol, You can go to EA or to VETASSESS
234112 Agricultural Scientist Competent Plus English (or Proficient overall); Offshore applicants Provisional 489 visa only VETASSESS
311111 Agricultural Technician Competent Plus English (or Proficient overall); Provisional 489 visa only VETASSESS
Agricultural Scientist 234112(some NSW regions)

Or You go to EA. A couple of states want Engineers as well as Agric.. professionals. Depending on how quick you can get your Nig. Transcript to Vetassess you can apply for their priority processing($1600 10 days assessment is finalised) same with almost what you will spend for EA which can take time. When the assessment is out depending on you and other factors such as English.. For 489 you get 10 more points so all you are looking for is to land yourself on 65 points inclusive of the 10. For EA you will be hoping to get nominated by a state 190 which is really competitive now or 189 If you can bag 8,8,8,8 then you are safe. In conclusion, if you get get a superior then follow EA, if not maybe try other options which are easier and quicker.

Funny thing is majority will come back in 4months if there is no need for CO contact.



Now I must say, you do have a good shot at the process with your experience in employment. While the only issue will be that if you assess as Agricultural Engineer, you will have to hustle ITA with "Other Engineering professional" on 189 and it's pro rata with limited states sponsoring the occupation on 190/489. If you can meet up 80 points for 189, then by all means go forrit.

Secondly, the MSc you did in UK, was there any particular specialisations? Your experience as project/site safety engineer, what kind of projects were they? CIVIL or MECH inclined or which other?
