Hi All,

I am new to this forum.

I need help on how to obtain the Australian PR. I studied Electrical Electronics Engineering but I do not have any relevant field experience.I however have over five years of Internal Auditing experience,three of which were at a Big 4 audit firm.I also have two internal auditing related certifications.

I have done extensive research on the assessing body which is VETASSESS,however some terms are not so clear as regards the suitability of my education qualifications being that my course of study is not related to my work experience.

I am at the point of making payments to VETASSESS for the skills assessment and i do not want a negative assessment.

I am hoping i would get good feedback on the possible way forward from people who have gone through this kind of experience and obtained their grant.

Many Thanks

I am not a prophet of doom, Vetasses outcome may not be favourable, but Electrical Engineer with EA and without work experience will fly. Hopefully men of the same feathers with you in this forum will assist you. Some have already flown to Australia.

Congratulations for your grants @doyen06 @Teejah80.

Got my test result today

Speaking 88
Listening 82
Writing 78
Reading 76

Thank God cuz i now have my 20 points to collect.

You are really very close. Try work on the re-order paragraph of Reading section and the other parts that contribute to Writing section. surely, you will hit the golden score on your next attempt. Thank God for you that you have gotten the trick to demolish (small but mighty) Speaking section.

Azy123:
Has anyone done Scored Ptepractice test since 5th of September and got his/her result?

I think they have issues with their site, tried to do same but saw the red warning of not being able to present results on time due to some technical issues. I have postponed taking the mock test till next week, hopefully, they would have resolved the matter.

@afolaseg, I hope you are getting ready, your grant go soon drop.

Nanlop55:
My Msc is not Archi directly did it in Urban design so i decided to be silent about it since i have not even collected the certificate

@Nanlop55, sorry to hear your negative skill report. if you can get your MSc certificate on urban design, i suggest you update your JD and nominate ANZSCO 232112 ( Landscape Architect) collaborate the JD with some of your CPM duties for VETASSESS to reassess.

MofePR:
Hello,

Please any idea on the point in use for nurses? The occupational ceiling is about 17,000. Does this mean a nurse with EOI of 60 points could be considered first before an accountant with 75 points assuming they both have the same DOE?

cc Mamajaz, AussieMrs, Bellong

Yes, but also depends on the number of nurses with points greater or equal to 60 points on the same DOE.

praiseisgood:
^^^^^^
Mamajaz, please can we have Ikenna's contact details?

It will also be great if we all can have the real cost (in Nigeria not the one on Pearson's site) of PTE- A

Some of us were stuck with R because we thought there was no alternative.

Gracia.

Ikenna ( ukeas Abuja) = zero 8 zero double five one 5 zero 744

afolaseg:
Congrat bro.

Your own is loading. I think you both lodged at about the same time?

lalaazo:
Yes I claimed 10points for work experience, no work verification was done to the best of my knowledge and we are a family of 3 .
Spouse and a child.

Congrats, may your Grant open more grants and positive assessment for others IJN.

Who can come to my rescue ?

Misoke:
Sorry just to get it clear...when you sent your eoi does not really matter as long as you rank high in the pool?like if someone sent eoi with a score of 65 in March 2017 and another sent eoi in June 2017 with a score of 75...the candidate with the higher score gets ita irrespective of effective date of eoi?
Until the cut off points drop to 65 before the march candidate will be invited (assuming occupational ceilings have not been reached)....pls my people just help me clarify because some occupations are highly competitive

That is correct if you are in the same occupation with the person. However, somebody nominating an occupation that is less competitive with 60 points (e.g Agric. Consultant) can get an ITA before another person nominating an occupation that is more competitive with 75 points (Accountant general) assuming they both have the same DOE

Bnimz:
Engineers are not allowed to use PTE for Assessment.... However we can and do use PTE-A for Visa purposes... Most people here got their 20 points from PTE-A... Including the engineers

@Bnimz, I have been searching for that your PTE-A 90 speaking voice sample you uploaded sometime ago, but couldn't find it and i even sent you a PM. I Hope your preparation to relocate is underway.

Bankole1790:
bellong good evening,I have been studying this page for sometimes now,I don't really understand how this permanent residency stuff works,Do they offer jobs after you might have gotten the required points and invited?or they only invite people and u will start searching for jobs yourself on getting to Australia?

Just read from 0-5pages of this thread and you will get more clarity.

koleefem05:
But Nna ehn, this PTE practice test no be beans o. Praying for a successful 20 points and nothing less. Who's got the code for cracking this PTE-A?

check out this link. you will find some good stuff there.

koleefem05:
Not even eligible for 189

This is the updated list brother;
The 23 occupations below were moved from the STSOL to the MTLSSL.
https://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/Pages/summary-of-1-july-2017-changes-to-list-of-eligible-skilled-occupations.aspx

koleefem05:
Yes, I saw it. But have you checked anzsco search to see that no state is nominating it?

I guess If you are qualified for 189, state nomination may not be pertinent, except you are bereaved of cumulative points.

koleefem05:
There is no offer for a Zoologist or Zoo keeper if you have checked anzsco search. So check you eligibility and requirement for a customer service manager or any other related occupation. And below are the related occupation to Zoologist

ZOOLOGIST is part of 23 occupations moved from STSOL to MTLSSL this month. Therefore 189 may be applicable.

chuglothen:
I have all my 4years +working experience in the banking sector as a cash supervisor and customer service managet but studied Zoology. Can i get positive response from VETASSESS as a zoologist or customer service manager?
Please help a soul

You need at least one year working experience for any occupation assessment with Vetasses.
