@admt2016 ano yang payslip?sa pinas or diyan sa AU?

@jedh_g I am reading your post about the EA membership fee, I am just curious what are the benefits of paying the membership fee? Will you get a license to work as an engineer? is this required in applying engineering professions? Thank you in advance, I am very interested as I myself is an engineer also.

jedh_g

@liam in paying the membership fee, you shall be entitled for the benefits such as follows:
1. you get the nationally recognized membership (unlike if not, migration purpose only)
2. you unravel the monthly subscription to "CREATE" EA journal issues
3. you can avail the membership ID card and be issued to your postal address
4. you can join technical conferences and technical paper access

This comes to a membership payment fee that others do not prioritize. But in my case, I want it as an additional means for me to immerse and get involved to engineering practitioners here.

There is a separate mean of acquiring engineering practice professionally that is by being a "charteted engineer" if that is what you mean. Though, you can still acquire engineering job as a profession without being chartered, at the end it boils down to your choice and experience. Here in Australia, it is absolute that to become an engineer here, it takes an australian local experience and employers to prove your worth - an investment of professional time and even additional engineering education

@admt2016 need ko pa kaya mag DKT (driver knowledge test)? According to the lady officer here in DOT Midland upon presenting my LTO card license, I am good to drive for 3 months na. Thanks as I knew, I just left to take is just the practical test.

admt2016

@jedh_g yes you have to. Lahat pa dn ng process
Gagawin mo from theory test to practical for you to get your full license. After passing the theory test, temporary driver's permit lng hahawakan mo together with ur PH license, valid for 3mos only. Within those 3 mos u need to accomplish everything to get the full license. If not, bbalik ka from the scratch meaning learner, P1, P2 to full. That's what the ServiceSA told me dito sa Adelaide.

Baka ang sinabi sayo na 3mos is mula pgdtng mo dito as migrant yes you are allowed to drive na PH license lng for 3mos, after that u have to convert to AU driver's license. Hindi na kse ako pwde sa 3month rule nila kse mag 5 mos na kmi dito. Kaya kelangan na tlga ng AU license.

jedh_g

@admt2016 thanks got this

admt2016

No worries! Kmsta job hunt mo? @jedh_g

jedh_g

@admt2016 quite low on employer response because of holiday freeze hiring and still positive that after the holidays job openings will peak

Ilan mos kna dto? @jedh_g

Kate_OZ2015

@jedh_g thanks for the input. Just wanted to ask if you have already received your certificate from Engineers Australia and how long? My husband had also applied to be a member of EA and just waiting for their mail.
