Chris Howitt Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Hello, If I have 3+ years of outbound telesales experience, is it possible to apply for a visa to Aus? I also will have around 70 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooba Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I'm curious how do you know you would have 70 points? If you do, then why couldn't you apply? I don't see that occupation on the list myself.

Skani Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 For a visa to work in Australia your occupation needs to be on the SOL or CSOL lists below. Telesales is not included. https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work/Skills-assessment-and-assessing-authorities/skilled-occupations-lists/SOL Depending on your age and your country, you may be able to apply for a Working Holiday Visa for a maximum of 12 or 24 months. Information on that can be found on the Individuals and Travellers tab at the top of the link above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Howitt Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Ok, so the points are for age , educational experience, English language test results, and a few more things. I had the WHV. In my my case it would be 60-70 points. Telesales isn't on the list but: sales and marketing manager is on the CSOL, however you need to delegate work to others etc. and be in a superior position, so wouldn't qualify, I don't think Marketing specislist (CSOL) is on the list but I don't know if that would be a relevant /valid skills assessment for telesales. So would marketing specialist be a skills assessment for outbound telesales ? I could find out the hard way!! Cheers for looking Skani..

MaggieMay24 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Best solution would be to have a consultation with a registered migration agent. They have experience in reviewing qualifications/experience in comparison to the various occupations to see what options you may have.

There isn't a visa pathway for everyone I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisawright Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 It doesn't matter how many points you have, if your occupation isn't on the SOL or CSOL. Telesales is not on either, so you don't qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinkla Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 There is no dearth of telesales people in Australia - particularly since so many of the jobs seem to have been sent offshore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
