Hi everyone, after some 1 millions searches i have finally found a forum that hopefully be able to answer some of our questions / dilemmas. So here goes, (could be a long post this one) i suggest you get a coffee sit back and relax
Who we are: - We are the Cane family from Warrington, Cheshire. I am Steve (40), my wife Adele (42) and our two daughters Laura (14) & Georgia (9). We like so many people on this forum have had enough of Great "rip off" Britain and have made the big step in deciding we want to move away to Oz.
I currently work for a global IT consultancy firm, I am a Team Leader in the support centre supporting a ERP system called SAP, this seems to score highly in the assessment test that can be done online (as SAP is a wanted skill). Scores range from 115, 120, 125 & 130 so some varying scores, but after some investigation it seems I would have to do a RPL assessment with the Australian Computer Society detailing my work history as I do not have a degree, I have learnt my skill from work experience, been on a few SAP course’s. Adele has no formal qualifications and is a Sales Office supervisor, so no score there. (Adele has just had a go at me for saying this)
I have a brother in Brisbane, and he has been there June 2007, so we may have the sponsor option but again I do not want to put unwanted pressure (if any) on him.
I have spoken to some job agencies and they seem positive they can get me a job (but they will say that).
We have been on that many websites reading page after page after page of information, all, the more I read the more confused we get. I guess what we are after is a basic guide on where we should start the process and how to get the ball rolling, should we do this should we do that, it’s all a bit confusing to say the least.
So any advice, help or information would go down a storm here.
All the very best from the Cane household (AKA Nut house)
