I'm thinking that it's my best bet too in a way, the job I do is on the SOL but I don't believe I actually have the correct qualifications, although I'm sitting a course in the next month which I think may. Sorry I'm a little uncertain about some things... If I was to come over on a WHV and I'm not on the skilled occupation list, would I still have the chance to move permanently? Or is it if your not on that list then you can't move over?

Anyone know much about this company? I've read back in the UK that they are starting to make a Steelmaking plant near Brisbane. This is the exact same work that I do and I also understand they are not many Steelmaking plants open in the world anymore. Does anyone know much contact details for this company or anything? All i can find is a phone number and an address which i written to some months ago. I did recieve a e-mail about them over a year ago saying they would be keen to chat once the plants sorted out but since then the e-mail address has been deleted.

I've been working the last 6 months in my normal place of work but been placed into a secondment within our safety team, this has lead me to look into health and safety jobs in Oz as i am now looking at doing my NEBOSH, would this be enough to gain employment / visa? Anyone who has done this before, was the National certificate reconised as I have been told not to bother doing the International one as they still reconise the National Certificate. Cheers!

I'm currently looking at coming over to Australia, just deciding if i should hold out trying to get permenant visa or come over and do a year or 2 whilst looking for work, would love to get to know some people who could possibly help me out abit. Totally unsure where to start off so any advice would be great! ( 26 year old male )

Hello I'm looking into moving to Australia after falling in love with it when i visited Perth around 2 years ago. I've currently got 7 years experience in the Steel Industry, 3 years being in the pipe manufacturing side of things, and the other 4 years within a Steelmaking setting. I have little qualifications that i feel would be enough to get me over, but do have alot of experience and knowledge. I have simple things such as Forklift license, slinging certificates, IOSH, Can deliver manual handling courses. But i have also had 3 years experience on repair welding fixing defects on pipes, a good knowledge into steel making / casting, I worked for 6 months on a safety team, looking into completing my NEBOSH course. Whats the chances of me getting work over there? I feel my girlfriend should be fine as she has just finished university doing Early Childhood Studies, and now has a job in a nursery.
