@cacophony @GreyM Nice to know mag explore rin kayo sa CA. Pero hindi ba pahirapan rin sa invites dun? Just saw their current invites, napakadaming nasa waiting pool at ang tataas rin ng points. Hehe.

Share ko lang, I had the same problem. My related experience was from 2012 to 2015 so limot ko na.
What I did was I messaged yung ex-officemate ko na kaclose ko na andun padin sa company to send me files ng mga previous project ko. Ayun naalala ko yun mga ginawa ko and naexpand ko yung CDR ko.
Baka you can do this din.

@Linetdane thank you! nga pala, nabasa ko kanina na electrical engineer ang pinaassess mo na profession. ung work experience mo ba strictly electrical engineering field? iv been getting feedbacks kasi na mahirap mapili for ITA ang production/plant engineers. kaya they suggest na ipilit ang electrical engineer. im electrical engineer pero sa semicon ako from the start.
bytheway, congratulations for your invite! galing!
thank you

Tanong lang po mga sir's and ma'am kailangan ba talaga ng cpd na related sa ilalagay mo sa episodes mo sa cdr napansin ko lng kasi yun sa CDR ng pinsan ko and sa ilang taon ko kasi sa previous company ko wala kaming seminars or training... Thank you for your response

Hi! Bago lng po dito ang naghahanap ng idea for cdr as production engineer. May nabasa lng po ako na mahirap daw mabigyan ng ITA yung electrical engineering graduate tapos ang naging profession ay hindi related sa electrical kahit sa manufacturing industry? 7 years as process/maunfacturing engg hindi po sa semicon. Thanks po sa makakasagot.

Actually yung detailed COE ko na gnawa ng HR namin para lang akong assistant engineer.
Pero yung work ko talaga is pang electrical engineer (ewan ko sa HR namin)
Anywaays, sinabihan ako ni EA na need ko magpasa ng proof of calculations at engineering activities na ginawa ko. Nagpasa ako ng load schedule na ako gumawa. Ayun umokey naman.
So to answer, yes pang electrical engineer talaga yung work experience ko na pinaassess.

Pa help po. Automation Engineer po ako. At ang working experience ko po is mag-program sa PLC at HMI and itest and commission ang project. BS Instrumentation and Control Engineering po ang tinapos ko. Bali hanggang ngayon di pa po kasama sa PRC ang kurso namin. Pero May certificate lang po kame not sure kung ok na yun or kung hindi. Most of my projects na involved ako ay sa mga Automation Industries like waste and water treatment plant and pump station ni Maynilad at Manila water. Pati mga Food and Beverages Industries like Coca-Cola, Pepsi, San Miguel Corp., PMFTC, Liquigaz , etc. Ang ginagamit po naming software is SIEMENS products(TIA portal), Allen Bradley, and Schneider.
Tanong ko po ay ano po ang pwede kong applyan sa occupation list? Thank you so much!
Advantage sana kung May mga ka kurso ako dito na nasa Australia na. Salamat po!

It’s actually 10 points if partner has positive skills assessment for an occupation on the same list as main applicant and with minimum competent English level

Experience will still be recognised without PRC as long as the degree is equivalent to an AQF bachelors degree.

Paano pong certify?
What I know is DHA will look at your evidence of employments pa din. Usually if may EA na mas madali na sa kanila mareview yung work experience.

DHA will still check, they have the final say though they give high regards on the assessment outcome, one needs to be mindful that the outcome letter states that it is the assessing authority’s opinion only and the decision for visa eligibility is on DHA

Not really kailangan meron isolve pero meron kasi doon sa summary statement na creative, so mas ok kung meron kang problem solving each episode. By the way, hindi mo ikwekwento un ginagawa mo. Its about how you apply yung course mo/occupation mo. Check your anzco code and check the task there. Apply nyo po iyon. Yung sakin po, ginawa ko ay kinuwento ko rin un mga gingwa ko sa work. Pero pinarewrite sakin ng CO, ito yung comment sakin.
