Engineers Australia Skills Assessment

jazmyne18 · April 2018

@michtery_aus ah if for earlier year naman pala na proof, I guess okay naman na siya.

kar28 · April 2018

magandang umaga po. Hope everyone is doing well

Hindi po sana ako ng advise. We are in the midst of completing the requirements and medyo confused dito (reference is MSA Booklet) regarding REFERENCE LETTER ON OFFICIAL COMPANY LETTERHEAD. Same lang po ba ito sa COE? Or ito yun need na may indicated JD? Looking at section 4.1 - hindi naman specified na need with JD. Pls help po. Thank you.

"Applicants who have claimed engineering employment
for more than 12 months or have based their career
episode upon professional experience must provide a
reference letter from the employer (reference letter on
official company letterhead, stating your title/position,
commencement and termination dates of employment,
signed and dated by the author)."

Hi @kar28

Magkaiba ang Certificate of Employment (CoE) sa reference letter. You can consider yung reference letter as you JD.

You should have the ff details:
- Employee name
- Passport no/ ID
- Title/position
- employment date
- no of hours working
- address or if you are deployed oveseas

This should be printed with the company logo, address saka signed ng key personnel like HR, immediate supervisor/manager or anyone above you na makakapagpatotoo ng claims mo sa employment. yung iba may seal or stamp din na kasama.

Ito yung sample ko.

Date: 26th July 2017

Dear Sir /Madam,

This is to certify that [NAME] with [Passport/FIN/ID] was a full-time employee of [Name of company] as [Title/position] from [Employment date] working 40 hours per week. She was deployed in [Customer address kung deployed ka outside. Kung hindi naman no need to include] with site address [Customer address] for systems integration and delivery of [Project Name].

In her capacity, she was responsible for:

- dito mo na isusulat yung mga job description mo. Suggest ko i-align mo dun sa skills mo na nakabase dun sa skills code mo. nakabullet form yan mga 3-5 bullet points.
- Bullet points 2
- Bullet points 3

Should you need further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned at [mobile no or/and email address].

Yours faithfully,

(signed)
Name
Position
email/mobile no.

Hi sirs/ma’am required po ba talaga ang RSEA? Kapag nag-apply as skilled independent migrant or is CDR enough?

CDR is enough talaga. Pero sa nangyari sa case ko sa ACS na ang laki nung binawas na years sa experience ko nagpakasigurado na ako sa EA. Extra fees siya pero ang advantage na nakikita ko confident ako sa points na claim ko.

@jazmyne18 noted po. Salamat sa input

kar28 · April 2018

Hello @sanseb2016 - maraming salamat po. Very clear and settled with your helpful information. Say, walang stamp or seal, ok pa rin naman? wala naman malaking bearing yun?

Another question po. About IELTs - for assessment, the higher the score, the higher the points given ba? or as long as pasado at ma-meet yun minimum band score for each na 6? what would you suggest?

Pwede naman wala yung seal/stamped. Yung mga companies ko lang dito sa Singapore nilagyan nila ng stamp which is common. Sa pinas wala, pirma lang.

Hindi din nakabased sa IELTS. Requirement ang english sa assessment pero you will be assess based sa documents at job description na ipapadala mo sa kanila.

Last time lahat halos pinadala ko para walang question.

So halimbawa sa Smart PH ko na work, I submitted JD, CoE, payslips, BIR, SSS, ID at business card.

Sa SG job ko naman, I submitted yung JD, CoE, payslips, IRAS, EP copy, renewal copy, business card, ID. This is my way to make sure na clear sa assessor yung trabaho ko.

Align mo mabuti sa ANZSCO code mo yung JD mo saka CDR mo. Kung paano mo gagawin ang story mo dun magbabased yung assessor.

Sa CDR 1 ko as Jr Engineer, CDR2, Sr Integration Engineer then sa CD3 ko as a Solution Architect so napatunayan ko sa kanila yung career growth ko. Walang naibawas sa akin total 12 years experience so confident ako sa claim ko na 15pts.

Thank you po

galf10333 · April 2018

Hi Mam / Sirs, pag school is sector 3 and walang prc license possible ba pa consider na bachelors degree? Course is ECE.

kimpoy · April 2018

Good day po. May Nakapagpa assess na po ba sa EA ng Professional Engineer pero ang lahat ng job experiences sa detailed resume ay nagfafallout sa "Electrical Engineering Draftsperson"? Baka po kasi magkaroon ng problema kung 'Engineering Associate' (as per MSA guidebook) lang yung magiging kinalabasan ng assessment tapos diploma level lang ang ibigay imbes na bachelor's degree sa Elect Eng'g

ginpo · April 2018

Hi guys, anu na update sa EA assessments?

nicnac · April 2018

@ginpo hi sir. still havent received the assessment result yet. im guessing ill receive it next week based from their email to me

ginpo · April 2018

@nicnac sa akin sir kahit feedback wala pa akong na re-receive. It's been 1 month (calendar days) already. But 15 days na if deducted ung mga weedends and holidays sa kanila.

michtery_aus · April 2018

Good morning everyone,

I would like to seek for an advice. I asked for a bank certificate for an additional supporting document for my Company 1. It was addressed to Engineers Australia. However, late ko Lang napansin sa bank certificate na mayroong konting typo error sa address Ng EA.

correct address : Engineering House, 11 national circuit, Barton, ACT, 2600

Bank certificate: Engineering House II, National Circuit, Barton, ACT 2600

Bale ung number “11” naging two capital I “II”. Plus the comma shall be after the word House. Strict po kaya Ang EA about this. Shall I request for a revised bank certificate?

Please advise.

Thank you so much po in advance.

MLBS · April 2018

@galf10333 highly unlikely po sad to say. May nabasa akong case dito na kahit may exp na sya na 8 yrs di pa rin positive assessment. Prc is mandatory for schools other than section 1.

kimpoy · April 2018

PRC Registration Certificate lang po ba or dapat din po iattached yung updated PRC license id?

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@anoja at least 70 for 189 subclass.

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@mj_eugenio not really. Skills assessment is different to skilled employment assessment

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@mj_eugenio perhaps try chemistry technician

Kaye28 · April 2018

Hello po. I just noticed na mali ung employment period ko for may previous and current company sa Skills assessement and RSEA outcome letter ko from EA. Nagkapalit ung end date sa previous company at start date ko sa current company

Comp A : Feb 2005 to April 2011 (correct: Feb 2005 to January 2011)
Comp B: January 2011 to June 2017 (correct: April 2011 to June 2017)

Tama nmn lahat ng dates sa mga docs na sinubmit ko. Panu po maipapatama ung dates dito. Nov 17 2017 pa lumabas ung result, hindi ko agad napansin ung dates. Kanina lang while reviewing all our docs for visa lodging.

Need help..huhu.

ginpo · April 2018

may update naba sa EA assessment?

chococrinkle · April 2018

@Kaye28 sis email mo ang EA na itama nila. Pero inform them to indicate the correct assessment date kung kelan lumabas ang 1st assessment mo. Kasi if they will issue a correct outcome letter and current date ang ilagay baka magka problema ka sa visa application kasi you already received an ITA. All docs should be dated before EOI lodgement as the points should already be sufficient before you were invited. It is indicated also in DHA website that you should have a positive skills assessment before you are invited to apply. Kaya dapat yung original assessment date pa din lagay nila. Lets also wait what others would say.

Kaye28 · April 2018

@chococrinkle Thanks, sana may na-miss out lang ako corrected outcome letter sa inbox ko. hehehe. I will dig my inbox and spam mails para sure.

Burns · April 2018

Hi All,

Newbie here. May I know how's the job market now for Chemical engineers sa Melbourne?
I just started my request for initial assessment sa agent ko so I can begin my application.

Thanks!

Burns

chyrstheen · April 2018

@Kaye28 oh no, sorry to hear that!

for RSEA ba yan sis? yung sakin kasi nakacollective lang na "Relevant Skilled Employment from June 2010 to Dec 2016" kahit 2 company yun. suggestion ko rin to email sila at i-keep mo pa rin yung original MSA outcome mo para sa degree mo. para may proof ka nung naglodge ka ng EOI. kasi hindi naman talaga required ang RSEA. buti nacatch mo agad sis

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@Kaye28 Does the error from EA have an effect your points? If none, I would either notify EA first before lodging and see if they come back to you before the 60 day timeline expires. If itvwonr meet your deadline, go ahead with your visa application and provide a cover letter explaining the error from EA which you've only noticed just recently and advice EA is in the process of correcting it and will provide the amended outcome letter once it's ready.

With regards to the date on the letter you can always explain such on your cover letter. Best of luck!

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@Burns I think someone in expert in recruitment in Australia is the best person to answer this.

The fact that it is on the occupation list goes to show there is a need for your occupation in Australia. I usually tell my clients to do a job search online to have a feel of the job market. That's the best indication for you at this stage. Good luck.

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@Burns btw, I posted before re tips about migration agents. It might be helpful for you at this stage

Kaye28 · April 2018

Thanks @RheaMARN1171933 .

By the way, kelangan pa po ba ang Philhealth contribution/ceritificate as additional employment evidence? Below docs are what I have only from my previous company. Kumuha din kasi ako kaso wala record sa Philhealth ung buong 2008, sabi ni Philhealth, baka daw hindi hinulugan ni Company ung year na un pero the rest of the month/year from Mar 2005 to January 2011 ok nmn lahat. I was aiming to get a direct grant sana, baka kasi hindi enough ung mga proof na meron ako.

Employment Evidence for Comp A: (Ceased operation - Closed since 2016 ata)
- SSS contribution/employment history 2005 to 2011
- ITR 2009-2011 (they can only retrieve these years when I requested prior shutdown nung company)
- COE (general from HR)
- Reference Letter (detailed signed by Manager with company letterhead)
- Pay Slips (June 2010 to Jan 2011 lang ang meron ako)
