I am a licensed civil engineer and worked in Saudi Arabia in a consulting office for 14 years as structural designer. I am here in the Phils and working in a Korean Contractor as structural engineer and our current project is the Philippine Area, biggest covered dome with 55,000 seating capacity.
Gusto kong mag try sa Australia. In demand po ba ang civil engr as far as my experience is concern? May nag suggest to look for sponsors with 457 visa.
Pwede ba akong mag apply as draftsman since well versed ako sa autocadd?
Advantage po ba if may mga relatives ako sa australia?
Hoping that anyone can shed some light regarding my inquiries.
Thank you and God bless everyone.

1. Am not sure of the current status of civil engineering in Australia, but with work experience like that I'm sure you will have no problem finding employment.
2. On the basis of the 457 visa, it won't matter whether you have relatives in Australia or not as they are not going to be the ones to sponsor you.
3. I suggest you try online job hunting for the position that you want, then send these companies your expression of interest (usually in the form of a cover letter) and CV. You should indicate that you wish to be sponsored via the 457 visa. Without sponsorship, you will not be eligible for 457.

you have several options:
a) apply directly as PR (visa 190/189/489) -(ikaw magbayad ng application fee, pero sure na kung papasa ka assessment/ielts/medicals/police clearance at total EOI 60pts atleast)
b) look for employer sponsorship visa 457 -(tsambahan/swerte swerte lang)
for PR application, marami na rin png mga members dito na CE ang succesfull nagka PR visa grant..

I'm new here sa forum! I have already lodged my application (visa 476) last March 11. My CO just emailed me last June 14 requesting for Medical and Form 80. I just completed the requirements last July 4 (uploaded the e-medical). Until now, my CO i not yet replying.
Normally, kaano ang tinatagal para magrant na yun visa after completing all the requirements?

pero based sa mga feedback nila, kasi nga mostly naka vacation tao from dec to first few weeks of Jan.. so mag-pick up ang hiring after that...
of course depende rin yan sa skill mo, kung very much in demand talga... walang pipiliing oras yan.. goodluck..
