    hi @shobskie, I'm planning to have my skills assessed this month. Sa application po ba ako mamimili if Software Tester or Software Engineer? Nag work na ako for 10yrs, 3.5 yrs as a programmer the rest as a tester. Thank you.

    @baguiobeans yes, ikaw mamimili kung ano nominated skill mo. job title does not matter, as long as your roles and responsibilities are aligned sa description ng ANZSCO job code.

    Hi all,

    I am new member here and I find this forum very informative and helpful to newbies like me. :) Nagsstart pa lang ako mg collect ng requirements for ACS.
    Tanong ko lang since hinde ko xa mahanap on old threads.
    Pwede bang ipa-certified true copy lahat ng docs sa Philippines kahit na ung ibang documents (like COE) ay given abroad?
    Di na po ba need na ipa-authenticate ung docs sa Philippine Embassy?
    Thanks in advance po and congrats sa mga kakareceive lang ng positive assessment :)

    Hello - I'm starting to gather employee references, yung company ko last 2009 nag iba ng management, as per HR wala na daw akong record sakanila and wala na rin ibang employee na makakapag verify na employee ako since resigned na lahat.

    Question ko is kung pwede ko bang gamitin yung old COE ko and mag pa sign na lang ako ng sworn declaration sa dati kong manager na ngayon is nasa ibang company na rin?

    Thank you. :)

    Ask ko lang po if ok lang magreply sa skills assessment person na nag email asking for additional docs? O dapat sa ACS portal lang talaga mag upload derecho ng docs? Nagreply kasi si ACS asking to upload an employment reference for one company pero naka upload naman sya initially sa website --reply sana ako sa kanya kung anong kulang na info dun?

    @SAP_Melaka Thanks. baka madaming nagsubmit na 75 points. Ung first round 78 pa lang ung invited.

    @papercut, upload diploma & employee references to qualifications & experience sections respectively. I saved my docs as qualifications.pdf, experience1.pdf, etc.

    @baguiobeans yes, you can ask your manager to create/sign an affidavit and have it notarized
