I'm considering migrating to Australia, specifically in Melbourne, because that's where my siblings are currently.
I graduated Computer Engineering and currently a Technical Writer (TW) here in the Philippines for almost 5 years. As I've researched, TW is included in CSOL, but is only open for state nomination at ACT. I'm rooting for VIC so I can stay with my siblings.
Although I'm a TW by title, I'm part of the QA Team in my company, and perform end-user testings for applications as well. I was wondering if I could apply a 190 visa as a Software Tester? It is the closest job title I could find now that fits my job description.
Anybody here that has gone through a similar situation? Any suggestions?
Thank you!
