  1. Post your questions here and someone will probably help you.
  2. No, you can't go to Australia and look for an employer without already having residency or a sponsor. You said earlier: I think you apply for PR after being issued with your OTSR.
  3. You will need to find an Australian employer willing to sponsor you or otherwise apply for PR. You can't just go over and look for an employer without having PR or having a sponsor. It will take approx. 5 (ish) weeks to get your trade papers/employment history assessed and then you'll be booked in to do your Vetassess "exam". All in probably 12 weeks. Then you have an OTSR which entitles you to apply for a provisional electrical licence when you land in Australia.
  4. Before you do your Vetassess assessment you need to send in proof of your experience as an electrician (VERY detailed references from each employer) as well as all trade certs etc. You're at the beginning of a very long (and ridiculous) process. :confused:
  5. I'm in a similar situation to the OP. I have my OTSR via Vetassess. Not so easy to find a sponsor though. Anyone know if the big oil &gas/mining jobs take on electricians with a provisional electrical license?
  6. Thanks Lou. They sent me a scan of my results (I passed!). :wink:
  7. Anyone know how long it takes to get the results from the Vetassess electrical assessment (UK)? I did mine almost three weeks ago but still haven't heard anything from them. How long have any of you guys waited for the results? Thanks for any info.:biggrin:
  8. Hi, anyone know what the current waiting time is for trade (electrician) assessment? I mean the Stage 2 check- training and employment check- online. Thanks.
