@psychoboy, follow up question lang - did your wife submit a Certificate of Board Rating from the PRC

Nope... Deyns na!

Hi! I think CIMA is recognized naman dito. pro natry mo na mag check sa job board (seek.com / mycareer.com/ applydirect.com) ng positions na gusto mo applyan? They are mentioning it kasi dun kun anong qualifications ang hnahanap nla. Sguro dun mo base un "upgrade" sa credentials mo para mas mablis ka mkahanap ng work. Good luck!Thanks..by the way my on line certification ba for MYOB?

Hello! Lapit ka na pala punta ng oz. san ka dito?

Simple lng resume dito. D kelangan ng pics since form of discrimination un.

Sa resume ko Inuna ko un skills ko at ang level of knowledge ko dito. (ie basic , intermediate, advance) Like un excel skills, ms office skills, ERP/acctg systems skills. Then my qualifications, kun ano natapos ko Saang Uni, professional exams na napasa ko,since nagtitiake up ako cpa australia qualifications ko, dito ko din nilagay. Usually kc sa dulo ito nilalagay. Sabi ng isang recruiter sa kn, mas ok na sa umpisa pa lng lagay ito. Kc kun mapapansin mo, eto un mga requirements na minemention nila sa mga job posts. Para daw kun may position na inaapplyan, kita agad ng recruiter kun anong skills at qualifications ang meron ka.

Tpos un work experience na. Naglalagay ako ng brief info bout my previous company na pde naman mkuha sa net. Pra may idea sila kun anong anong industry un. may siningit din akong quantitative info para mas maassess nla un in a bird's eye view kun gano kalaki or profitable un dati kong company.

Importante sa bwat application is yung cover letter. Bullet point style ang gngamit ko pra i-outline kun bkt fit ako sa job. Depdeng eto sa job post na inaapplyan ko. Pra daw mapansin agad ng recruiter kung bkt ka fit sa job na yun. Which is true kumpara sa paragraph style lng.

Good luck sa job hunt. Magapply appy ka na. Pra pagdating mo dito, interview na agad. GBU

@Shengsevilla hello po. ibig ko po pala sabihin kung may gumawa ng sarili nilang employment reference letter. Ang COE ko po kc ung standard lang tapos hindi naka-state ang mga job description.

hi! No worries! Ganun un COE ko sa company ko. Humingi na lng ako ng job description sa HR (usually may record sila) then inattach ko. Yung form ng job description sa company is may part na magsisign ang manager then pna-company stamp ko din.

Hello po Mr. @psychoboy, CPA po ako, ung recent job title ko po in SG was Accounts Administrator pero yung work ko po e pang clerk. Pano po ba ang gagawin dun sa CoE? The company did not state kung ano job description ko so that's my big problem kung pano i-justify ang work experience ko.
Thanks in advance. Pansin ko po kasi na marami kayong sinagot na mga tanong dito kya cnyo nko dumeretso.

TasBurrfoot

@cylin - ang audit job din ni misis dito sa SG, the HR did not provide a detailed COE so what we did was to come up with a statutory declaration which lists the specific roles and responsibilities ni misis sa firm.

tinaggap naman ng CPA Australia so I guess DIAC will also accept that...

cylin

@psychoboy saken po kasi ung duties ko po sa work e hindi pang CPA, as in not much of an accounting role/duties. Baka sumabit po ako pag naglagay ako ng sarili kong description.
thanks po

Then I guess this might bea problem as CPA Australia/DIAC may not see your work experience counted...

Silhouette

hirap naman maghanap ng work dito... huhuhu.. sa mga andito na sa oz, any advice? nagkuha ba kayo ng mga short courses muna? balak ko sana mag aral pag may trabaho na ko

@Silhouette - hello boss, a month in Oz na I reckon? May I know where specifically ka sa Australia? And what was your specific accounting work experience before moving down under?

I wish you all the best...

hi, hindi pala kita nasagot, hehehe, dito kami sa cairns, queensland. regional na sya kasi may libreng matitirhan. almost 3 months na wala pa rin work. accountant ako sa isang shipping company sa pinas, handled almost everything from payroll, ap, pcf, inter-company accounts, yung ar invoicing lang ang hindi. one company lang throughout 8 years, 4 years as the accounting supervisor. goodluck po sa inyo

Hello,
I'm not an accounting grduate. But I have my financial and management acctg taken in my masters then nag awol ako. When I've applied for membership sa CPA australia, they've considered my undergrad degree as "meeting CPAA's degree requirement and exempted me in economics and quants pati foundations of accounting. Then they requested for a course outline of my accounting subjects for possible further exemptions (results should come out within the week). I'm planning to complete all the gaps in the foundation level sana but im worried kung after completion eh i coconsider nila lahat un for my nominated occupation-management accountant-sa migration assessment.

I have almost 5 yrs(1.3 yrs in financial risk management and 2.6 yrs in a bank's treasury group managing cost of funds, investments, etc).

Does anyone share the same experience with me? Any inputs lang coz medyo magastos ung mga subjects and not to mention ung time na kylangan magaral for the exam.

@Jeebs - is your aim to migrate in Australia? Take note that magkahiwalay ang CPA Australia Membership and CPA Australia Skills Assessment (getting a positive assessment for this is a requirement for EOI).

Case in point here, ang wife ko who is an accountant got a very good skills assessment wherein she got 12/12 in the core knowledge area. She applied as well for assessment as part of supposed plan to gain membership in CPA Australia, the irony here is that she is was not able to pass 3 courses in the foundation level. Worth noting though is that iba ang nag-assess sa skills assessment niya and her foundation level; skills assessment was done in the global HQ in Melbourne whilst the foundation levels assessment was done locally here in Singapore.

Jeebs

@psychoboy That's new info to me. I've been directly mailing my papers to Victoria aus.

foundation level kasi is divided into 2 categories (4mandatory and 5optional subjects). It differs from every ANZSCO occupations (accountant general, mngmt acct, corp treasurer). Baka ung nominated occupation ng wife mo na meet na agad ung 4 mandatory subjects, meaning na take na nya sa undergrad; ung 3 subjects is optional lang just in case she decided to be fully become a CPAA member. This is my opinion only on their labelling between mandatory and optional for migration:

" A. You will be required to complete mandatory core knowledge areas depending on the Australian and New Zealand standard classification of occupations (ANZSCO) code you have nominated. In addition, you must also complete at least a further five optional core knowledge areas. "

Actually, im not hoping na irerecognize pa nila work experience ko. Habol ko lang is 65 pts.

Age: 30 pts
IELTS: 20 pts (started preparing for this already since I need an 8 for all subtest).
Educational qualification:??
This where my dilemma is since I need to nominate an Occupation in SOL 1 which is mgmt accountant nga. Since magkahiwalay naman ang awarding of points/assessment for education qualification and skilled employment, i think, i just need to make my qualification as close to my nominated occupation as possible since hindi ako cpa. Kaya I've applied for membership muna.
