parang wla akong nabasang min years of experience required...
at kung sa Engrs Aus ka magpapa-assess, wala din nmn akong nabasang min years required.. in fact you can use you school thesis to demonstrate your skills sa CDR..
another note, DIAC will award points for work experience (3yrs = 5pts), and this is at the time of invitation, so kung magapply ka ngaun, at mainvite ka next year na 3 yrs na work exp mo, you will have that 5 pts na..
