Oz2021

Hello! Sa mga nakatapos na nang Professional Year program for Engineers/Accountants/IT, share your experience naman. :smile: Like:

Your program and year completed

Your PY provider and location

Internship experience: ok ba?

Employment opportunities after completion

And kung worth it ba overall?

Ang dami ko kasing nababasang horror stories online about PYear. May mga feedback saying hindi naman daw relevant yung binibigay na unpaid internship.

Thank you in advance! Kung may tips din kayo for doing the PYear, please do share! :smile:

ICT, Performance Education, started April 2018, completion Feb 2019

Internship experience: ok ba?

Self-sauced, Self-sourced mas okay dahil hindi ka nagwowork for free. 3 months din yun kasi. And may binubuhay akong family hehe.

Employment opportunities after completion
Ang employment opportunities ay naka depende sayo, both skills at personality - kung culture fit ka. May chance ka din ma hire sa host company ng internship mo kung exceptional ka. Nagmementor ako ng PY intern ngayon at naalala ko sarili ko 2 years ago hehe

And kung worth it ba overall?

Worth it ang 5 points. Kung may money to burn ka, around 11k AUD. Magandang networking opportunity din, dami kang makikilala na same adventure sayo. Masaya na magastos. May 1 day kang papasok sa classroom setup instead na pahinga. Pero overall, sobrang worth it kasi dun ko inuha yung skills assessment ko sa ACS.

I paid 8k AUD kasi may money rebate akong na receive mula sa 3rd party agent na pinag enrolan ko nang PY.
