@guenb diba pwede i-email mo muna sila why the decision was such? wag review / reassess, baka magreply sila sa reason (ie, dapat HR not former managers, or ung format, etc)

rich88

If I may ask, ano yung role na nilagay mo from 2007 to 2012? Statutory declarations ba yung mga yun or reference na may company letterhead?

Pwede mo naman sila i-email kung bakit hindi na-credit yung previous exp mo from 2007 to 2012. In my experience, sumagot naman sila agad.

Hindi ko na rin kasi tinuloy yung reappeal ko dahil may mga subjects sila na hinahanap na wala talaga ako. Masasayang lang yung $395 ko.

Hello!

Very inspiring mga posts dito. I too am planning to have my skills assessed by ACS.

Question, sa statutory declaration, kailangan ba na yun pag notarize is in the same country as the one who signed it? Problem ko kasi is that my previous team lead is in the US, willing naman siya gumawa ng stat dec, pero nakakahiya na siya pa ang magpa notarize dun.

TIA!

@rich88 2007-2012 are references from former managers (still in the company) with company letterhead.

@prcand ayun na ni-email ko sana mag respond. Pero tama naman diba na pag lumabas to:

Dates: 10/12 - 12/14 (2yrs 2mths)

Dates: 12/14 - 03/16 (1yrs 3mths)

Meaning yan yung suitable employments? Thanks talaga sa inputs nio.

prcand

@guenb sir po ako 🙂 tama, ung nasa bracket ay siya ung credited as work exprience / suitable employment. btw, if it makes you feel better... pareho tayo ng NOC, 4 years din bawas sa akin kahit isko ako at compsci

@prcand haha ayun edited na, yes positive pa din nga yung outlook ko, at least mag-aantay na lang ako ng months. Anyway, hahabol pa naman ako sa IELTS, so kapit lang. Thank you!

@philipjds bro, depende yan sa lawyer na maglalagay ng stamp ng statutory declaration. Pag matino kasi yung lawyer, irerequire nya na pipirma sa harap nya mismo yung manager mo dun sa statutory declaration.

Ganyan din actually yung problem ko before, overseas na yung manager ko. Mabuti nlng meron syang natagong template ng company letterhead.

What I can suggest is ikaw na yung gumawa ng statutory declaration, tapos sya na ang magpa-stamp sa US. Although nakakahiya dahil hassle sa kanya, yan lang talaga ang legal na paraan na naiisip ko.

Another option is, baka meron kang template ng letterhead ng previous company mo. If meron, ikaw na gumawa ng reference tapos email mo sa kanya yung ginawa mo. Then after affixing the signature, ipa-LBC mo pabalik sa yo.

@guenb so more on sa work experience po kaya nabawasan?

rich88

@guenb oo yan nga yung suitable employment.

If may company letterhead naman pala, I guess dapat i-contest mo thru email muna para walang bayad. Sayang rin eh. If talagang may valid reason sila kung bakit d nila na-count, at least alam mo kung bakit. Transparent naman sila sa mga answers nila sa mga inquiries based on my experience.

@rich88 @guenb Two years minimum po yung deduction usually? So it means po ba na if 4 years minimum requirement ng nominated skill, dapat at least 6 years yung work exp para medyo sure?

Eto po yung case ko.

Course: BS Information Management (UST)

Work: Mag 6 years sa June (technology consultant with BA/SA kind of roles)

rich88

@ichi_pestano Yes, 2 years minimum. If 4 years ang minimum requirement na na-assess ng ACS sayo, dapat greater than or equal to 4 years ang relevant experience mo.

Sa case mo, since UST is a section 1 school, most likely bachelor's degree ang assessment sayo. Tapos Information Management is related sa BA, so best case scenario eh 2 years lang ang ibawas sayo. Pag minalas, 4 years. Dito ko nakuha yung list of PH schools by section: http://pinoyau.info/plugin/page/accredited-schools/U

Ako mejo malas, 4 years binawas sa akin kasi sa software testing ako tapos computer engineering ang course ko. If you want, you can check sa ACS site kung anong course ang kelangan nila for BA, tapos i-cross check mo dun sa TOR mo. if >65% ng subjects mo eh nandun sa list nila, mejo safe ka na nun.

Hope this helps..

prcand

@ichi_pestano walang rule of thumb na two years minus agad agad. depends sa course (core units) mo at ano ung ina-applyan mo na NOC.

if BA ka, tapos info management graduate, baka nga walang bawas eh. pero pag BA ka, tapos compsci, 4 years ang bawas.

if developer ka naman, tapos compsci, pwede walang bawas.

guenb

@ichi_pestano i agree with @prcand and @rich88 ,in your case kung 6years ka na pwede na tlaga magpa-assess. Pag 2 years lang bawas sayu, at least may makukuha ka points for experience. If -4 naman para sakin okay na din, as long as suitable yung result. Bawi na lang sa iba like IELTS or PTE. Meron dati BSIT tapos BA sia, 2 years lang bawas, pero depende kasi tlaga sa subjects.

rich88

@prcand bro meron ba talagang instances na walang bawas? ang swerte naman kung ganon.

Based sa ACS criteria (https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/7324/Summary-of-Criteria-2014.pdf), ang wala lang bawas eh yung mga nasa AU nag aral mismo.

ichi_pestano

@rich88 Hi! Mas mag-matter po ba yung subjects kaysa sa course title? Information Management kasi yung course ko, nagpalit lang to Information Systems after ko naka-graduate.

rich88

@ichi_pestano hmm.. i think mas tinitingnan nila yung subjects na nasa TOR talaga. I suggest na magpa assess ka na dahil enough na yung work experience mo at related naman ang course mo sa occupation mo na BA. I think magka batch ata tayo, 6 years experience rin ako this coming July.

ichi_pestano

@rich88 Thank you! Kinakabahan po kasi ako sa assessment. San po makikita yung required years ng experience para maging suitable? Parang wala dun sa PDF na guideline ni ACS. 🙁

rich88

@ichi_pestano Andito: https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/7324/Summary-of-Criteria-2014.pdf

2010 ako nag graduate, so if magkabatch tayo, i think magiging suitable naman yung assessment mo. Worst case is -4 years experience lang siguro.

Ako rin kinabahan ako that time, pero naisip ko na hindi matatanggal ang kaba mo if hindi ka pa mag papa-assess. The thought will linger on your mind until you take the leap of faith. Take the first step then everything will fall into place.

prcand

@rich88 yep, kaibigan ko. Ateneo compsci. Dev NOC niya

rich88

@prcand wow.. Pwede pala yun. Ayos!
