advice on visas PLEASEEEEE !!!!!!

Hi everyone really excited i found this site im hoping someone can give me some good honest advice, il start from the beginning 3 years ago me my hubby and children decided we wanted to move to oz for a better life, so me and the hubby flew out to perth for a couple of weeks my husband went to 10 job interviews in the hope of a sponsor to make it a bit easier for us to move, all of the employers were impressed with my husband but said they were not keen on sponsoring as it cost a lot of moneyand they have had there fingers burnt in the past but if we get our own residency he would have a job waiting, the problem being is my husband is a construction manager with no qualifications on paper he started of 10 years ago as a labourer and worked his way up the ladder to a manager, he is very good at his job and has some glowing references from employees but we were told by people that we had no chance of a visa without degrees and qualifications on paper, and as im a housewife and have nothing on my belt well i worked for 1 year as a foreign exchange consultant but i dont think that counts?? we sort of gave up on the idea but as the kids are getting older we are regretting our decision of giving up and now want to find out if we can do it, so please if anyone out there reads this and has had similar problems or can help in any way please please contact me my email is dst1@sky.com i would be really grateful for any advice, by the way perth is the most amazing beautiful place ive ever been to
