Since same tayo ng field (telecoms), hihingi sana ako ng advice sa inyo regarding the Summary Statement ng CDR para sa Professional Engineers.
Dun sa 2nd column (Brief summary of how you have applied the element), kelangan ba sariling words o pwede ko gamitin yung description dun sa Appendix ng Migration Skills assessment booklet?
Another question, sinama nyo pa ba ang PRC ECE license nyo sa CDR documents nyo o hindi na? Expired na kasi yung license ko.
Thanks po!

Napansin ko kasi sa timeline mo na 2 times ka nakatanggap ng positive assessment from EA.
Ibig sabihin ba, dalawang beses ka ba nagpasa ng mga required documents mo at nagbayad ng fees?
Or, yung same application mo pa rin ang ginamit mo para sa 2nd assessment mo?
Tsaka if I may ask, BSECE graduate din po ba kayo?
Thanks!

1. Sa 2nd assessment mo, may dinagdag ka bang documents, or iniba mo ba yung CDRs mo?
2. Binago mo ba yung Summary Statement mo sa Engineering Associate, o ganon din halos ang laman tulad sa Professional Engineer?
3. Hinanapan ka ba ng vocational/associate degree para sa 2nd assessment mo?
Thanks ulit!

1. i assume na nakuha mo ang 15 points sa education (bachelors degree)?
2. napansin kong umabot ng 4 months yung una mong assessment (December-April), tapos 2 months lang dun sa 2nd (April-June). any idea bakit kaya mas mabilis? dahil ba sa "engineer associate" mas mabilis o mas konti ang nagsusubmit ng assessment?
3. may idea ka ba kung pwede na mag-change ng nominated skill ang applicant pag nakasubmit na ng docs? kaka-submit ko lang kase last week at balak ko sanang ipa-bago.

1. yup nakuha 15 pts
2. 19 weeks ang assessment ng EA. Pag mgpapaassesss ng iba mas mabilis na kc same CDR lang ang gagamitin and related nman kc. Pwede kontakin ang EA
3. Nagsubmit ka sa EA. Not sure pero pwede tawagan baka pwede p ipa change. or mgsusubmit ng bagong application n change of nominated occupation. Kung ikaw lang ngsubmit kontakin mo nlang EA. Kung may agent ka, cya n pakontakin mo

Any referrals for telecommunications jobs. I arrived in Melbourne last month and finding it hard to land an interview. Mas priority daw ang referrals. My background is on transmission and project management.
