    263111 Computer Network and Systems Engineer
    This temporary closure will allow processing of all outstanding applications and reduce the risk of delay for future applicants.

    Points dont matter in Victoria. Its nice to have high pts though pero they are more concerned in your CV and how you can fill in jobs. @hyjac28
