    Hi guys. I'm an Industrial Engr. Nagwork ako as production/material planner pero mga 2yrs lang tapos ang current job ko ngayon ay SAP data analyst. Sana pumasa pa rin sa EA assessment. IE ang occupation na aapplayan ko sa EA pero pagdating ko dun sa australia if ever e aplayan ko data analyst kc mas enjoy ako sa ganung work. In-demand po ba ang SAP Data Analyst sa Australia? Thanks in advance! :)

    @Drew83 Bro, 2mos pa lang dito sa Melbourne, nag job hunting pa rin. Maganda nga na may Australian Qualifications ka na pag dating dito para mas may edge. Ang malaking concern pa lang na nakikita ko ay ang pagkaroon ng local experience since yan parating hinahanap ng mga companies dito. Good luck sa Seeklearning bro. Ok yan!

    @vitofilip bro ang mahal ng certificate IV, nakausap ko yung isang teacher from TAFE, 5770 AUD and full course (upfront payment) kasi nasa offshore pa daw ako. Pero may nabasa akong thread dito na pag PR pwede daw mag apply ng govt aid ang babayaran mo lang daw is 800 AuD, baka i will go for that kind of aid nalang kasi medyo mabigat yung upfront payment, baon ko nalang yun, haha.. anong inclination mo bro? sa site kaba? or QC or sa planning? Cheers!!!

    Bro, pag PR ka dito may mga gov't subsidized trainings na may certificates. Pero usually pag na assess ang qualifications mo na Bachelor's Degree.. hindi ka papasa sa govt subsidy na eligibility tests nila. Try mo itong eligibility test dito: https://emedia.rmit.edu.au/support/eligibilitytafe

    @Drew83 Bro, pag PR ka dito may mga gov't subsidized trainings na may certificates. Pero usually pag na assess ang qualifications mo na Bachelor's Degree.. hindi ka papasa sa govt subsidy na eligibility tests nila. Try mo itong eligibility test dito: https://emedia.rmit.edu.au/support/eligibilitytafe

    @vitofilip bro I tried your weblink. Nirerecognize ba ng employer pag nakatapos ka dito sa vocational program na offered here? Usually gaano katagal ang course to complete?

    I'm a mechanical engineer here at Philippines. Pa migrate na ako as PR this September 2016. Maganda na ma-plano na ang lahat para madali matanggap sa job hunting. Thanks in advance bro!

    @jedh_g Bro, good question. Hindi ko masasagot yan based on experience kasi hindi ko pa na try mag training dito kahit yung with government subsidy.

    Based sa mga kakila ko dito, may ibang edge talaga ang nkapag aral ka dito or yung may local qualifications ka na angkop sa skills mo. Pero, meron din iba na kahit walang qualifications, nkaka-kuha pa rin ng skills-related work in a few months lang. Na-coconsider din kasi ng mga recruiters/ companies ang Skills-related Experiences aside sa Qualifications(Education), which is depende din sa hinahanap nila at a given time.

    Si Mrs ko naman ngayon, on-going ang training niya, sabi ng Teacher nila, malaki daw talaga ang advantage na may local qualifications or training certificates sa paghahanap ng job..lalo na yung training school nila ay nka network sa mga companies at dun din sa kanila naghahanap ng work. Pero hindi 100% subsidized ng gov't ang training niya kaya may ilalabas pa rin na pera.

    So, kung may pera ka at oras, mas makikita mo na puede mo makuha ang advantage na kumuha ng ilang training courses pansamantala habang naghahanap ng work.

    Sa haba ng classes, usually, 2months to 6months ang mga training sa mga Certificate IV courses. Yung mga short courses, like White Card, nsa less than a day lang. Pag ibang short courses, nsa 8 to 30 days lang din.

    Kaya icheck mo rin bro kung ano ang puede sa iyo, habang wala ka pa dito. I hope nka tulong ako in any way.

    @vitofilip salamat at I could attest to your info kasi sabi ng college batch mate ko sa Perth right now, maganda daw na I aim for my Certificates especially level IV considering na more than 10 years na ako practicing dito sa Philippines as engineer.

    Alam ko na noon pa na hindi basta 2x nakakapasok sa work as "engineer" dyan kahit exprienced na sa pinas. Kaya, I am forecasting to get:
    1. Local experience (3-6 months)
    2. Study or take a certificate (I don't know if this is the RPL process)

    I need to secure a permanent job din kasi bro. Para pag pinasunod ko na family ko, all of them, sure na may work na matatag. Need all the preparation and hard work. Madalas nga na aussie employer ang hanap ay if meron ka na bang local experience and certifications "GAINED FROM AUSTRALIAN EMPLOYER" yan ang tanong na gusto ko mabigyan ng solution.
