Now that i have received our "Grant" ticket to AU, i would like to share my story...
I am a Chemical Engineer by profession, had experience in that field for at least 5years, but 2yrs of it happened 10yrs ago. These are also the work experiences i sent to EA for assessment, covered dates are June 2004 - October 2009. In short kulang ako 5points due to less than 5yrs related work exp.
Nov 2009 to present - my job is not related to Chem Eng, it is a purchasing role for indirect categories, not even engineering. But this did not stopped me from pursuing my dream, our dream, coupled with lots of prayers of course. Luckily my title is Project Analyst hence i was able to tweak my exp na mejo kiling sa engineering. Pero mejo far talaga from my nominated skill... I prayed hard na sana palambutin ni Lord ang puso ng CO ko ang will consider my work experiences...
Thru God's will, we've been granted of our prayer... it was really a risk for me/us kc 4 kami sa application.. ang mahal ng fees.
Truly GOD is amazing and works in mysterious ways!
My message is simple - work experience not related to nominated skill is possible, but yes, very risky...
To others still waiting - keep the faith and your prayers...
Thank you all for your responses!
