Targetted Skill: Executive Assistant/Office Manager

Year's of Experience: 5 years

What's my chance of getting a nomination?

Please house, which skillsets should I target? And what are my chances?


Thank you.

You can also peruse the occupation list yourself

BoldassBadasser:
Good morning boss!
thank you sir for your Swift response!

I think I will go through self employed medium

now as of the company registration number I think I can work something out.

invoices from suppliers and customers alike.. don't think would be a problem too

but evidence of payment for job done? come on... this oyibo people packaging too much naa

boss you know how we run this time here naa, "bricklaying job is not such a reputable job here", it's just a blue collar job where most of the payment are done with physical cash.

now boss how do I get pass over this one?

thanks hoping to hear from you soon

Sincerely, no idea how you want to go about it without evidence of payment

Baba you lost me here o!
For someone who has Diploma in Elect-Elect, I believe one year should be Sufficient for anything electrical Level-2 related?

Perhaps you didn't get me.
TRA requires applicant to have at least 3 years experience in the occupation being nominated. Not talking about the qualification

djo120920:
Thank you for your reply

I want to know if the nominated profession qualifies me to apply.
And also if there are any other things I need to know about the VETASSESS thing.
How many points would be needed..

Question 1 not clear
Question 2: All you need to know about Vetassess is on their website. One other thing is that Vetassess is very particular about your job descriptions aligning with your occupation. That's the key to getting a positive assessment. Transcript delivery for both degrees are required as well.
Question 3: not clear as well....needed for what?

I

BoldassBadasser:
please doing the TRA Assessment will I have pay for all the fees on their site?

and are they different from the 4047AU$ that I still have to pay afor the visa...?

forgive my questions, I know it sound lay. but I'm a newbie to this whole visa process.

TRA Assessment fee is A$1000 except if there is any other requirement for an occupation like Bricklaying.

Yes, visa fee is different from assessment fee
Assessment fee is to Assessing bodies while
Visa fee is to Department of Home Affairs

BoldassBadasser:
thanks you sir for your response!

please I want to ask... when you said something about having atleast 3 years VERIFIABLE experience as a bricklayer can you please throw more light?

what if I do this bricklaying job independently without being under any company? how do I verify?

Although I have an inlaw who works for registered building company in Lagos and I worked with them for about a year and half or so before I left the company.

what do you advice I should do sir. I have been on bricklaying job for dunky years even before uni days but just don't know how I can go about the verification since apart from the company I worked for with my uncle in Lagos, must of my jobs has been as an independent body.

should I contact my uncle since he works with them to get the company to help with a verifiable 3years working experience under their establishment?

thanks I look forward to you reply at your earliest convenience.

Verifiable experience which you must have payslips, tax, pension or bank statement for at least 3 years before assessing with TRA as well as qualification documents qualifying you to be a Bricklayer.
For self employed, you will need company registration document, invoices from suppliers and customers, evidence of payment for job done etc.

Post the occupation(s) you deem relate to what you do.

babajava:
Just recently re-assessed as Transport company manager and it came out positive.
Now waiting for wifey's assessment outcome, most definitely using her as the PA.

But does it mean that any job I wish to apply for must be centered around a managerial role ( I love the salaries attached to them) due to my assessment outcome, cos I wish to continue in the transport & logistics sector & I'd like to know the region where its demand is high having in mind wifey's job too. Slowly but surely. E go end well In sha Allah
@tunlex, @bellong

Congratulations on your positive assessment.
Your employment after landing has no bearing to the occupation you assessed for. You can decide to switch occupation. It's all up to you.
I'll advise you concern yourself with getting ITA first, wherever you land, you will be fine

BoldassBadasser:
Please I am graduate of philosophy University of Benin graduated since 2015 currently working with a government health parrastatal , A Hospital management board to be precise in one of the states in the country as an administrative officer2, my employment is dated back since 25 November 2018 and having gone through the list I can't seems to find my career pathway as an administrative officer and also my course of study philosophy seems not be any relevance to the list as well.

I need your assistance please all voice will be appreciated thanks once more

Do you have at least 3 years verifiable experience as a Bricklayer?

BestofGod:
Wonderful job you are doing here.
Please kindly help look at this:

Is it compulsory to assess both bachelors degree and masters degree or I can assess only my masters degree on VETASSESS?

I have M.Sc in epidemiology and medical statistics from the University of Ibadan (2yrs).
Epidemiologist occupation falls under 224113(statistician) with a year working experience as an epidemiologist but my bachelors degree is in anatomy.
I am looking to assess only my masters degree in VETASSESS, please is this possible to get a positive outcome? Thanks.
@tunlex01, @bellong and others

Yes, you will need to send both transcripts

abham:
I appreciate, I just had my B.Sc in Nautical Science from The Regional Maritime University Accra Ghana and that is the only field of study related to me. Is there any one you can advice on?

None at this time

Hello I have a friend who is a Crane Operator and his plan is to migrate to Australia and work as a Crane Operator. Can someone with this skill qualify to apply for the resident/work permit? If yes please what are the requirements. Also which of the immigration program can he fit in? Thanks.

The link below is the thread for your enquiry.
https://www.nairaland.com/4478747/diy-guide-australian-permanent-resident

However, crane operator is not a relevant skill for now as it is not available on the occupation lists.
See image below for visa options for crane operator

abham:
I searched through and came up with this ANZSCO 231214: Ship's Officer

this occupation is only available for 494 and 187 employer sponsored visa.
If it's not available for 190, 189 or 491, I dont put mouth. Also, I haven't seen anyone assess with AMSA before.
Good luck bro

abham:
Hello, I have interest in applying for the Aussie PR but I just got my documents from school and yet to serve. My field of study “maritime” might really be essential at the moment but I once checked on the 494. Is there any other visa means or I should get some work experience in my field of study before planning for the PR, I await your response.

You will need at least one year experience if your occupation is on the list. What's your ANZSCO code?

Hello everyone. I'm currently working here in Nigeria and I'm also doing an online program to secure an MBA degree with a school in London. I've done a lot of research online and I realized that Australia pays better than London. I don't like Canada because of the cold. I'm yet to complete my MBA program but I want to migrate to Australia and continue the program. Please what's the best way to do this. What's the easiest way to get a work visa in Australia. I've been applying online via seek.com but I haven't gotten any positive response since I don't have a Visa �. I feel the whole IELTS thing is a long process and it's not even certain that I'll get It. Please I need advice. I work in the banking industry

The earlier you start preparing for the English test, the better for you.
Getting a job from Nigeria is super unrealistic except you have specific skills which are readily not available here; not even 'banking industry'

lisa2020:
Hello,

I have been reading through the thread for some time and still not sure how to go about the process.

My spouse and I with our 2 kids are planning to relocate, we thought of Canada initially but Canada is on the lips of everybody and hence might be highly competitive, hence Australia. We are also open to suggestions based on our unique situation. I am just lost on where and how to start and what are our chances?

For Vetassess, certifications does not really have bearings. Only Degrees are considered.
You can visit www.anzscosearch.com to check out the occupation(s) you can nominate.
You can only nominate one occupation. For example, if you nominate a facilities manager, all other experiences are operations manager will not be considered.

Good day All,

I tend trying Australia PR. I’m having a paper left in my professional qualification(ICAN)

Course :Accounting (2016)
Current Role : Internal Control -less than a year
Previous Role: Accountant -2yrs
Age :26
IETLS-Nil
Anzocode : 221213 (MLTSSL)
Assessing body -CPA,IPA,CAANZ

Have tried accessing my skills points (65-70)

My fiancé
HND -Business Admin (part time )
Current occupation : Restaurant Manager

Which of the visa class would be suitable?

Any hope for me

Internal control/Accountant is not the same with External auditor.
Also, Accountant, External auditors or similar roles are not hot cake for offshore nomination due to increased number of applicants onshore.

Your spouse can assess as a restaurant manager if he/she has enough experience.

I have issues with canada because of the band 8 in IELTS required for me to even reach 471 points and its most likely going to go up with the way people want to write the exam now.

PGD is not a PhD its barely a full masters. its just the same point with a professional masters like MBA not even a academic degree

But i also have google digital skills certificate , hubspot email marketing certificate
i even have SAP Materials Management certification that i havent used....no mind me i just gather certificate anyhow

Pgd is just a Graduate Diploma for Australia migration.
If you have plans to leave country, you will be better off getting the IELTS band and facing Canada squarely

mobiss:
Hi All,

Please I need assistance on how to go about the TRA migration process. I have a B.Tech in Mechanical Engr. with 3 yrs work experience in logistics and supply chain, presently I am 36 and running my own business now. I would have love to get accessed by EA but my first-degree qualification doesn't align with my little year's of work experience. So, I thought of going in through TRA.


Likewise, I'm yet to do my English test but from the points calculation, the max I could get will be around 70 points.

PS: I'm married with 2 kids.

Is TRA possible for me?

TRA is number one crusader of occupation aligning with qualification.
Which occupation do you plan to nominate?

Ayooze:
Guys I need serious advice

I have b.tech applied geophysics and PGD entrepreneurship development which I finished January my result isn't out yet due to what's happening in nigeria

I have been working as a digital marketer for 3 years now(2017) although it's my own e-commerce startup
Now the issue is I wasn't operating properly so I was just paying myself salary anyhow I wanted. No payslip

I recently got a job in another organisation for digital marketing executive although I'm performing managerial role. I'm starting their whole online presence

But you know naija low pay so they don't want to give manager tag so you don't ask for money.

I plan to apply for this PR program next year after I write my IELTS which I'm certain I'll get at least band 7 which puts me at 70points already (I'm single 26years)

I'm positioning myself as a marketing specialist
225113 MARKETING SPECIALIST

Now the issue is my degree not matching my work experience

What do I do?

My PGD is like a professional MBA does it qualify me ?

Also can anyone give a rough amount of money needed to compete this process

Please I need urgent response, I'm trying to plan my life ahead and quick

BTech in Geophysics is far away from Marketing.
Also Pgd is not a Master's. It won't fly.
Your best bet is Canada

Ikjosh04:
Hi Tunlex01, thank you for all you do.

Please the bolded caught my attention, I am/will be studying Msc Engineering Management in Aussie as soon as the boarder opens up and the bolded caught my attention.

Please hope I'll be able to assess for my PR as an Engineering manager without facing the 6yrs experience ish?

I am a fresh graduate and I barely have working experience here in Nigeria.

The bolded was specifically referring to IML's (formerly known as AIM) assessment process.
Studying Engineering management does not make you an Engineering manager especially with IML. Perhaps EA may accept a fresh graduate.
Have you read through the tasks of an Engineering manager?
This is a general description of the occupation
Plan, organise, direct, control and coordinate the engineering and technical operations of organisations.

uzolexis:
Hi guys,

So I'm looking to start the Aussie immigration process and I would like some guidance, tips, pointers especially about getting regional or state sponsorship. I've read up a few things here but the thread is already over 200 pages long.
Pls is there any whatsapp group for starters like me that would be helpful?
Thanks

You can ask specific questions here. We are all learners and there are no wrong questions

GoldPanther:
Hello Bosses in the house, please I just got my English results and thankfully I passed, I wanted to ask if the Aussie migration route is still feasible? I will like to apply for 491 as a Civil Engineering draftperson, I have 5 years verifiable experience.
I spoke with an aunt in NZ last sunday and she sounded so discouraging that Aussie is at the moment not processing any long stay Visa till maybe 2022, I don't know how true it is so I bought it to the house as a lot of people here are already in the system.

Please at the moment is processing an Aussie 491/190 visa a waste of time? Or its safe to forge ahead? Thank you.

CC: @bellong, @tunlex01, @bligs, @anybody else wey sabi!

I won't say your aunt is not giving accurate information but Aussie is still processing migration even though it's at a slow pace due to the Covid19 pandemic but in this week, there has been surge in visa grants.

Congratulations on your English result. I hope it's 20 points

Promzy12:
Good day everyone, Please when will department of state affair allocate full nominations place to states and territories for skilled visa program for 2020/2021

No specific dates but some states may open in November

Brawlscartel:
Hello guys I have an HND in quantity survey can a apply for PR

Someone should please explain

There is no way to know if you don't provide more details.
Also read few pages back and check the websites provided

Zachxolan:
Hello all, thanks to everyone helping with this thread esp tunlex01 and bellong

I am thinking of giving this Aussie PR a try and I have gone through the thread religiously and was able to understand some bits.

Here is my info, pls kindly help out;

Age- 31
Degree- B.Eng Mechanincal Engineering (2011)
Uni- Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta
Work Experience- General manager e-commerce startup (2014 to 2016)
I currently work as a senior sales executive for an ICT firm presently(2017-till date)
Status-Married
IELTS- Yet to write

Spouse;
Age-24
Degree- HND Animal Production(2019)
Schl- Laspotech
IELTs- Yet to write
Wrk Exprnce- She is just about to conclude NYSC

I have gone through the site and the only job that relates to what am doing right now is Sales and Marketing Manager on STSOL. Can I still go ahead and give it a try considering my degree is different from my experience?

To assess for that occupation, you need to be a senior manager reporting directly to the MD.
Assessing as a manager here requires at least over 6 years experience at the managerial level

castrokins:
Hello All,

I would like your opinion on my situation.

I hold a degree that's not closely related to the job I do. I'd like to assess for environmental manager with my BSc Environmental Protection and Resource Management but I have been working as computer operator in a federal University.

Kindly advise

Computer operator cannot fly as such occupation is not on the list and also you don't have the right qualification

Experience4u:
Please if you have not been attended to by Tunlex01,,, do have patience as he is finding it difficult to post on the platform. Once this is resolved, he will definitely get back to us all.

Thanks

Thanks bro. It's been resolved now

Audio3:
Thank you so much for the reply.

Just to be clear when you say i will have a better chance do u mean i will have leave my hubby behind and secure mine first? I really dont want to go to a foreign land alone.

Here is my occupation from STSOL list : 251312 - Occupational Health and Safety Adviser and
132311 - Human Resource Manager.
Assessing Authority for both - VETASSESS.

Thank you.

No, I meant you have a better chance of getting a positive assessment and being the PA than your spouse.
Now you have two options, did your spouse also check for his occupation?
Human resource manager is not assessed by Vetassess, it's IML. You can check again.
With HRM, you must be a full manager reporting to the Managing director.
Have you checked other HR roles? 223111, 223112, 223113

For 251312, visit Vetassess website to read the fact sheet for the occupation if it's applicable and read thru their assessment process. It's simple and straightforward.
If you have any query, you can always ask here.
