Sa course naman, BS Computer management course nyo. Usually kasi ang nabibigyan lang ng -2 minimum sa work experience is yung mga graduate ng Com Sci or IT. Ako computer engineering so nabawas sa kn 4 years.
May napansin ako.. bakit 261399 (Software and Applications Programmer NEC) yung nominated nyo? pang 190 lang kasi yun eh. Dapat 261313 (Software Engineer), 261311 (Analyst/Programmer), or 261312 (Developer/Programmer) inapplyan nyo if prefer nyo 189.

Kung itutuloy nyo ung 261399, state nomination ang route nyo dahil wala yan sa SOL. Basahin nyong mabuti yung JD ng ACS sa ng 261311, 261312, 261313, at 261399. Halos parehas lang lahat ng roles/responsibilities.
Kung ako ang nasa posisyon nyo, at hindi naman issue ang 500 AUD, magpapa re-assess na ako ora mismo sa Analyst/Programmer or Developer/Programmer.

then, hopefully its ok to ask. what if walang nakalagay na email ad / contact number yung HR/Manager or may gusto kang ilagay na contact number (like ung immediate boss mo, since HR ang nakalagay sa COE), may option ba sa ACS kung san pwede ka maglagay ng (additional) contact details? or wala?
sorry kung natanong na to.. i've been readin the last hundred pages of this thread, pero wala pako makitang nagtanong na.. hehe.. thanks in advance guys

I intend to get assessed by ACS and currently on the process of gathering my requirements. I need clarification/verification lang po regarding the following:
So, yung mga companies na napagtrabahuhan mo na hindi nagbibigay ng COE with detailed JD, you can
(a) ask for the generic COE
(b) support that with payslips/service certificate/termination letter.
(c) ask for statutory declaration by your Senior or Colleague.
Questions:
1. Puede po bang ka-level ko lang yung mag sisign? kasi wala kaming senior sa pinas, nasa abroad lahat based.
2. So bawat company na napagtrabahuhan ko, na nagbigay ng COE pero walang detailed JD, kailangan statutory declaration for each? Meron po kasi ako nabasa na pinagsama na nya lahat sa isang document.
3. "Start & Finish Dates of Employment - if currently employed, your "finish" date can be written as the "To Date" " -- Kailangan po ba may word na "To Date"? or puede na yung same sense like "Currently employed"? hirap po kasi humingi ng detailed COE kasi bago palang ako sa work.
5. Puwede po ba makahingi ng sample statutory declarations nyo.
Thank you in advance.

Past 10 years lang kino-consider ng ACS sa work experience kahit may 12 years experience ka na tapos less atleast 2 years deduction for ICT course (tama ba term?) which will make may qualification to only have 8 years. Does it mean kung may 3 months ako na wala ako trabaho in the past 10 years eh di ko na possible makuha yung highest points sa work experience kasi kung meron ako 3 months na wala trabaho eh nasa 7 years and 9 months na lang experience ko? Tama po ba?
Meron ba makakapag-confirm?
