261313 Software Engineer
At least that is the case when applying for Sponsorship from South Australia.
I am unsure of the quota status for the rest of the states though.
as far as i know for the purposes of State Sponsorship the occupational ceiling for Software Engineer for SA has been reached. i am not sure if that is any indication of EOI / SS chances overall or State level.
it would be good if you could consult a RMA.
best wishes.
there are 8 states to look out for when applying for state sponsor.
act
nsw
qld
wa
sa
vic
NT
Tas
first things first is to look thru their websites and look at their demand list although some of the states' lists are not updated yet.
it will give you a clear indication.
have to warn you that no forum advice can replace the expertise of a registered migration agent.
agent submitted EOI / SA SS about 13 hours ago.
10 minutes ago, i received an email from SA to post them hardcopies of my IELTS, Skills Assessment etc etc by 15th June 2012. I am not sure why.
why 15th June?
