Cabatty Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Hi all, I'm currently working as a multi-skilled engineer ,with electrical bias, for a large UK brand in a food manufacturing environment. I am a qualified electrician, but, although certified, I have minimal experience with domestic electrical Installations. I have worked as an electrical technician on a wide range of equipment, such as motors and generators in the Royal Air Force, then i became a field service engineer with Siemens, where I was required to maintain single phase equipment and electronic pcb's; I had to fault find and repair to component level. Now I work on all types of automated electrical machines and again repair and fault find to component level. This includes PLC work. In this role I also carry out mechanical work. I would like a similar role in Australia to my current one here. Can anyone please offer guidance with what role from the SOL I should be persuing to ensure i complete the correct skills assessment, and also what is this job is known as in Oz? Thank you very much for any assistance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Electricians moving here have it tough, as despite any skills recognition you do to get a visa, they are not recognised when you actually get here ! You will need to budget for this as its costs to get them recognised. As for which visa, maybe giving an agent a quick call will put you on the right track. However i will move your thread to the migration section as a couple of agents often post in there. Lots of luck with everything and i hope you can sort something as QLD is a lovely place to live.
