Napansin ko kasi base sa mga job ads na parang kailangan natin ito para makapag hands-on sa trabaho. So balak kong subukan na gawin para makakuha ng Electricians license.
Any idea?

in my case IELTS general training ang ginamit ko para magpa-evaluate sa Engineers Australia. because obtaining an overall band 7 is quite difficult in IELTS, i shifted to PTE academic for DIBP use.

Melbourne ako at transmission naman experience ko. Madami din namang factory dito at madami din opportunities dito. Ang medyo mahirap lang kelangan mo ng certificates sa lahat ng bagay. Kung di ka mapili sa work mabilis din naman makahanap ng work

I just want to ask some advise po as I have a plan to move there in OZ.
Currently I am working here in Dubai as EE in the field of construction for about 6 years while I have also 3 years experience as Electrical Design Engineer sa Pinas..
My question are the following po:
1.) which state po ba indemand and EE in the field of construction of vertical projects?
2.) what is the shortcut way to acquire my Pro Engineer Visa atleast within 4 to 6 months. Posible kaya?
3.) Does EA or EOI will consider all my 9 years working experiance?
4.) plus factor kays sa EA or even sa EOI or sa mga company sa OZ ang credentials ko for having distinction award as I am also belongs to top 10 on the REE licensure examination.
Sana po may makatulong Saken...waiting for your valuable feedback...

1. Melbourne at sydney ang madaming opportunities ng work.
2. Kung may ielts ka na at necessary documents for EA assesment kaya ang 4-6 months basta 65 points or up ka at fast track ung EA assesment mo. Ako kasi natagalan ako sa pag gawa mg CDR eh
3. Ma consider naman yan basta complete ang documents mo like employment certificate, job description at pay slips
4. Sadly di nila masyado tignan kung topnotcher ka at same pa din ang process mo tulad ng iba kahit isama mo sa ipapasa mo ung certificate of distinction mo. Dapat kumpleto lang requirements mo para mas mabilis
