    For Admin, ask ko lang sana kung yung list ng accredited Schools na nasa site na'to is from AEI-NOOSR CEP for Philippines. Magpapa-assess kasi ako ng skill ko as ICT Customer Support Officer sa TRA. One of their way to check if the qualification is equivalent to Australian Qualification Framework is by comparing it to the AEI-NOOSR CEP of the applicants country.
    My school is Polytechnic University of the Philippines w/c is Section 2. What does this mean and how will this affect my application for TRA Skill Assessment...Thanks!

    Skill: ICT Customer Support Officer - 313112
    31/08/11 - IELTS (Passed)
    25/06/12 - TRA Skills Assessment (Successful)
    06/09/12 - Nomination (Lodged)
    07/09/12 - Visa Application (Lodged)
    08/10/12 - Nomination (Approved)
    22/02/13 - Visa Granted!!!
    Thank you Lord!!!

    Depende po sa qualifications...in most cases kailangan nyo pacertify uli sa Australia para marecognize yung experience niyo

    click their family name:

    yan lang ang listahan ng MARA sa pinas authorized by the Australian Government.

    Check po kayo online or attend kayo ng mga overseas job fairs dito....you'd be surprised maraming employers po ang gusto magdirect hire ng mga pinoy :)

    The easiest way of getting to Australia is still the General Skilled Migration visa (you can file this on your own) but once in a while, God gives out blessings in the form of employers visiting the Philippines :)

    wow! talaga loki? btw share ko lang. medyo 50-50 na kame sa pag pursue ng GSM. my wife and i kasi recently discovered that her company po has a branch in OZ and some expat here in SG shared to here that transferring there is possible. pwede cya madestino sa OZ kung may openings. kasi mas prefer daw na internal muna before kumuha sa labas. last time we checked in their system there was an opening for her position kaso nakakahiya kasi 1month palang cya sa company nila tapos nagbabalak na lumipat. hehehe.

    like lokiJr said, God will sometimes open the door for you if it is really meant for you. im not saying na makakapunta kame dun thru this way. sabi nga sa bible "what is impossible with men is possible with God" :) thanks!

    @Mariz081005, Strict po ang Australia sa educational background at dapat may specialty po kayo...so asikasuhin niyo po muna mga yun para madali kayo mabibigyan ng visa. Sayang din kasi kung minadali niyo yung pagpasa tapos irereject din sayang pera.

    @aolee, hi sir musta na kayo? Ako naghihintay pa ng contract hehe

    Check niyo po ang "Skilled Occupation List" andun po ang mga trabahong in demand po sa Australia. Di po kasi lahat ng gusto magmigrate dun ay papayagan ng Australia manirahan dun..kumbaga they take in people they need to make their economy better.

    Puwede po kayo magpastate sponsorship or kung may relatives kayo mas madali yun :)

    no choice kasi limited lang ang alam namin sagutin sa mga tanung mo at ang MARA mas nakakaalam ng sagot sa lahat lahat ng mga tanung mo. Magtatanung ka lang naman sa kanila ang babayaran mo lang consultation fee. Magbabayad ka ng malaking halaga kapag kinuha mo ang serbisyo nila para tulungan ka asikasuhin ang documents at visa application mo. cheers

    Malaki po talaga ang gagastusin para makapunta ng Australia at makapagtrabaho dun...Kung sarili lang kayo magpapasa ng application, humigit kumulang Php200k na kaagad yun, at assuming tama lahat ng pinasa niyo hehe.

    Mas malaki gastos para sa serbisyo ng mga agents pero at least panatag kayo na kabisado na nila ang proseso :)

    Manpower agencies po...yung tipong nagppool sila ng tao para sa mga service oriented occupations (blue-collar jobs)...Medyo mataas din ang recruitment fee sinisingil nila at hindi sigurado ang trabaho kasi nagpapadala lang sila kung may nahanap na silang employer...Plus marami ngayong scams sa ganyang larangan.

    Best approach would still be GSM visa...matrabaho pero at least maayos ang proseso :)

    Hello mga kababayan!

    Ask ko lng po, im working here in Singapore for 4 yrs.teaching guitar and drums in a music school.
    Pero di po ako graduate kse bihira naman po nakaka-gratuate sa music dahil sa dami ng subject at hirap ng mga pyesa but 4th yr na po ako, can it be a down point to me in applying for a working visa?
    My experience here in SG and in the Phil. is almost 9yrs.of teaching and 12 yrs of performing.
    Does my experience will pull-up my undergrad level in the pointing system?

    Matagal po ba pag-aayos ng visa sa aussie?

    How much mo nagagastos??


    Salamat po mga kababayan.

    The last job fair in Sydney was Sep24-25, but I wasn't able to attend. :(
    Andito po ako ngayon sa Sydney, pinasyal ako ng brother and wife nya for the past 2 weeks. next week tapos na mga leaves nila, so papasok na sila and sa Sunday yung return ticket ko. di ko na alam kung magpapa extend ako para maghanap ng work na.

    So right now, I am thinking if it would be better if I will go back to pinas to continue waiting for any job sponsorship offer from Oz companies or stay here until the validity of my tourist visa. Any suggestions? TIA

    @wisha, correct me if I'm wrong pero may mga specific visas lang na puwede ka bumisita ng Australia at maghanap ng trabaho. Pag "purely travel" lang ang purpose ng visa niyo huwag po kayo magpasa ng resume at puwede kayong madeport.

    Naalala ko holiday visa ata pinayo sa akin ng boss kong madalas mag Australia. It's either that or the usual General Skilled, Regional Sponsorship visa ang dapat kunin niyo.

    Puwede niyo pong gawin pagbalik niyo ng Pinas, mag-apply kayo ng General Skilled Visa...pinoproseso na ang visa habang nagttrabaho pa kayo sa Pinas. Pag ok na yung visa, apply na kayo online para pupunta lang kayo ng Australia pag sigurado nang may trabaho kayo :)

    Ask ko lng po sa mga migrant civil engineers thru GSM jan sa OZ, malaki po ba ang chance na mkahanap ng work pag nandyan na? Is there a specific state na malaki ang chance na makahanap ng ganitong work?

    I'm 33 yrs old and working here in SG for 5 years with a total of 8 years work experience in my profession (construction site). Nababasa ko lng kasi sa mga ads na more on civil works ang hiring nila for civil engineers. In my case, nalilinya kasi ako s building construction. Sana may makapagbigay sakin ng idea with regards s field ko when it comes to job hunting once nandyan na s OZ.

    Maraming salamat po.
