RPL for Mechanical Engineers?!

Guys, need help/advice

any mechanical engineer here working in the oil and gas industry, mining or power plant?

As most of the job ads i am applying requires certain certifications and diplomas here, i find it hard to apply/penetrate...yung sabi ng isa kong friend dito sa WA na nagwowork na as FIFO worker sa isang mining company, need daw na ipa RPL ko ang skills and work experience ko acquired outside Australia...

any insight regarding this one or probably advice?

thanks :-)

    brod, suggestion ko lang. try mo na medyo babaan ang description ng work na hinahanap mo? halimbawa e Mech Engineer ka, tapos mag pa assess ka sa TRA as fitter or mechanic? pag Engineer naman ang gusto mo talaga e mukhang madami kang ka competition sa position.

    @Milkan thanks sa reply bro...nakapagcontact na ako ng isang trade qualification school/center...so far ang advice nga e kuha ng cert III Mechanical fitter at binigay lahat ng requirements to fulfill...

    supposedly Cert II process plant technology pero ang advice niya e Mechanical fitter at mas maganda daw un at maraming field at opening, either sa oil and gas, mining and power plant.....

    the cost e mahal nga lang pero installment naman... :-)

    @melvinrose uhm, pwedeng hinde, pwede kumuha...depende sayo... :-)

    pero mostly talaga e need ng mga certain tickets, like Working in Heights, Confined space, permit to work, construction white card, fork lift, etc...

    yung mechanical trade cert, either cert 3 or cert 4, ung cert 3 kase, mechanical fitter ung tawag nila...then ung cert 4 naman e for supervisory ek-ek...

    uhm, hinde na ako kumuha kase ang mahal niya...kumuha na lang ako ng cert 4 ng frontline management at WHS...

    **yang mga cert na sinasabi ko, kung titignan mo ung mga job ads ng mga company dito sa Oz, karamihan hinahanap ung mga trade qualification or engineering background...kumbaga pandagdag pogi points pag meron kang trade cert...although minsan naman e hinde na hinahanap...at puro tickets lang ung hinahanap...

    btw, congrats nga pala sa visa grant...kelan ang dating mo? WA ka rin ba? kitakits... :-)
