This is my 1st time to log-in and post comment here. I would like to seek for your assistant guys about my interest on working in AU. I worked as TSR(call center) and was handling Aussie Client for almost a year. I decide to leave my current job and find my own luck maybe in AU or somewhere else. What I would want to know are there any position that will be suited on my qualification base on my experienced, what do I have to prioritize looking for employer or apply for Visa lastly do I have to be skilled in order for me to be qualified. Thanks, I’ll be waiting for any comments and suggestion

there are two options:
1. you apply online and ask if company can sponsor your working visa
- check mo yung seek.com.au
- mahigpit ang competition, but there are some who managed to get a sponsorship via online
- http://www.pinoyau.info/discussion/1341/online-job-hunt-got-hired-and-sponsored#Item_6
2. apply for a Permanent Residence visa as a Skilled Migrant
- read this thread to understand the process

Thank you @RobertSG, sana as soon as maupload ko na yung new passports namin ma grant na din kami.
Family po ba kayo na lilipad sa AU?
Mahirap po ba talaga mag hanap ng work sa AU? After po ba ng visa grant nyo, resign na agad kayo? or wait pa ang Oct?

I'm getting mixed answers on the type of IELTS I should be taking.
I plan to be assessed by ACS - what should be the IELTS Exam I should be taking? General Training or Academic? augh.
Congrats to honeybunny by the way

So 2 things; (1) depends on what is needed by skills assessment nya and (2) assuming okey ang #1, if added up ang points, aabot ba sya ng at least 60?
Tks!
