Skilled Migrant Visa: HELP on VETASSESS Assessment

espicableme

hi everyone, i have a dilemma on which occupation should I apply for assessment in VETASSES which will give me more advantage. I am a licensed food technologist and has been a quality specialist for 4 years before i was promoted into my current role. However, my current role is different now from being a QA specialist, which now falls under a managerial category, and i'm already on my 3rd year on this current role. Would it be okay if i still apply for Food Technologist or should I be applying now as Prod Manager? any insights would be appreciated. thank you!

You just need to check which in the past ,had these occupations possess a higher rate of invites and potentially can give you more chance na mainvite. Just do a research separately -that can give you the key in deciding which one to go.

On my research just now - one was invited for Food Technologist in VIC -190 last 19 Oct 2023 and one in WA (under Graduate Stream -PHD and Masters ) last 14 Oct 2023 , while for 189 the last round was in Dec 8 2022.

while for Prod Manager (i assume is under manufacturing?)

is eligible for 190/491 recent invites were coming from ACT and WA (Under WASMOL 2 Stream) April and May 2024 ,while in VIC i saw one in Jan 2023

If considering the above data - Food Technologist seems to be eligible in more pathways than Production Manager - while the latter is being invited in states that are hardly open for offshore applicants (ACT and WA)
