Hi I was wondering if someone could clarify a question for me.

I qualified last month as an Operating Department Practitioner in the UK (ODP) and have an interview for a private hospital in australia for the role of anaesthetic technician with 457 sponsorship. Before proceeding further I was wondering if there is actually a minimum work experience requirement for the 457 visa? I don't want to be offered a job and then fall at the last hurdle when I apply for the 457

Thanks

Hi just quick question, I will be looking at the 457 route early next year. Does it depend on which occupation or country you're applying from whether or not medicals and police checks have to be done? Some posts i'm reading haven't needed them and others have.

Thanks

Hi, thanks. No its just I seen couple of jobs and 457 was mentioned. I think 189/190 is the safest option, just looking down all avenues.

Hi, could someone please clarify if a carpenter is eligible for a 457 employer sponsored visa and if so is a skills assessment required?

Regards

What occupation are you applying under?

He has evidence going back further than 5 years for previous employment but for the past 4 he worked for a company who no long exist. He does have P45, payslips etc but would be unable to obtain any sort of reference

Thank you,

Vetassess certainly is an obstacle course!

Hi,

My husband is a joiner and has recently made made redundant as the company he worked for went into liquidation. He has worked for them for the past 4 years.

As a requirement for Vetassess he needs to provide evidence of employment, work experience etc for the last 5 years. How do I do this?

I hope someone can clarify this.

Aww congratulations, you're on a roll now xx

Congratulations!!

Hi, i'm watching this thread closely. I'm about to start university to study as an Operating Department Practitioner and at the moment this occupation isn't on any of the state sponsorship lists. I understand in Australia they are known as Anaesthetic Technicians and at present there is only ACT who have this occupation listed, albeit "Closed". I would be interested to see if anybody has achieved SS through a Closed occupation.
