    @kristelmae_ Hi, it depends on many factors like what kind of work it is, your work experience on that field etc.. Yeah, It is possible to find a job and to transition into another visa. just make sure that you have a Plan B on hand to stay lawfully in Au. You have to apply for another visa a month before your visa expires and they'll give you a bridging visa until you get the outcome for the new one.

    Hi Guys,

    If anyone is looking into coming to Australia on a student visa, I'm happy to help you out. I'm doing part-time casual work as a marketing specialist for Australian Careers Education (ACE), a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) located in Melbourne, Australia.

    ACE has been in operation since 2010, boasts two large campuses and offers the following qualifications on our scope of registration in both the VET and CRICOS sectors:

    - SIT30813 Certificate III in Commercial Cookery
    - SIT40413 Certificate IV in Commercial Cookery
    - SIT50313 Diploma of Hospitality
    - BSB40215 Certificate IV in Business
    - BSB50215 Diploma of Business
    - BSB60215 Advanced Diploma of Business
    - AUR30612 Certificate III in Light Vehicle Mechanical Technology


    The school will assist you with any inquiries you may have regarding enrolments and student support when you arrive in Australia. Like you, I once went through the process of applying for a student visa myself. It's not that complicated, but obviously requires understanding the requirements in order to maximise your chances of getting a student visa grant.

    Send me a direct message here or look me in on Skype: Den Melbourne

    Thank you and good luck to everyone applying for a student visa!

    @AspireAU21 hi po yes academic ipatake mo sa brother mo or magpte nalang siya if 7.0 all bands ang target niya. hmm 8yrs of nursing then bachelor? did you already talk to an agent? siguro you need ng advise for a better pathway sa brother mo kasi backtrack ka ng thread dito, may mga narefuse na before na masyado mahabang work exp then di nagaakyat ng program na inaapply. try mo po communicate with an agent na quality muna

    @AspireAU21 may bridging program silang binabangit dito, para after 3 months, recognized as nurse na, then pwede diretso apply PR, or baka nga pwedeng diretso ng PR, ask ka sa mga nurse :)

    @AspireAU21 Marami ng English exams na nirerecognize ngayon like IELTS, PTE, OET. Kung IELTS, kailangan ng Acad at 7 in all bands. Pwede siyang magbridging course which only takes for 3months.

    @sawadikap Hi, congrats on your move. Just have your visa ready and your passport. Yun lang naman. Manood ka ng border security Australia sa youtube para may idea ka kung ano yung mga dapat o hindi dapat dalhin. Don't forget to declare kasi malaki ang fine. If you're not sure, just declare.

    @landdownunder_au Wow congrats! Ang bilis ng visa grant mo. Ibang field yung kinuha mo sa AU pero naapprove ka padin. It all depends sa GTE talaga, i guess.

    I'm currently waiting for my visa, hoping to receive it in less than a month din :)

    Good day. Please help! need some inputs lang. I am planning to take Advance Diploma program since di pa ako qualified kumuha ng masters program. Pero sabi ng school na napili ko di pa din daw pwde na mag advance diploma agad ako since di daw recognize ng Australia yung natapos ko. Graduate ako ng BSBA. Need ko daw muna kumuha ng Diploma program then Advance Diploma na. Ngayon hindi ko kasi alam kung papano mag apply ng Visa pag 2 course ang kukunin pero same institution nman. Please please help!

    @AspireAU21 Kung maganda ang work experience niya sa atin like sa specialized areas gaya ng theater, cardio, etc malaki ang chance niya na makakuha kagad ng work. Hubby ko madaling nakahanap ng work since my 3yrs experience siya sa OR. Inooferan din siya ng sponsorship. :) Sabihan mo na lang siya to let his/her referees know na employers might call to confirm whatever it is na nakalagay sa CV niya.

    @jhalyn I-coordinate mo siya sa school na you're planning to take those 2 courses para padalhan ka ng offer letter. Then idedetermine ng immigration kung gano katagal student visa na ibibigay sayo.

    @jhalyn Hello! Same tayo ng case. Graduate din ako ng Bachelors dito. I applied for Diploma and Advanced Diploma at the same time sa school then dalawang COE ang nareceive ko, nakaindicate naman dun kung gano katagal both courses, mine is 1 year each. Then sa visa application mo, attach mo lang yung dalawang COE. I'm currently waiting for my visa. :)
