Hey thanks for the reply, I have a bachelors in aerospace engineering and a diploma in light vehicle maintenance and repair principles I also hold a MOT license. I feel as for the skills assessment, engineering would be a better option to apply for a visa with? So an engineering technologist?

Hey thanks for the reply, 1. I will take the English test to gain the points on the assessment in this case 2. Skills assessment to be done after the english IELTS test is completed 3. I will go as an engineering technologist as I also hold a qualification in the automotive field 4. Thanks for the weblink and tip on this!

Hi all, I'm in very early stages of applying for a Visa for Australia. I'm 25 years old, I hold a degree in Aerospace Engineering Technology with 2 years work experience working with an Airbus supplier in Germany. I also hold IMI level 3 in Automotive Maintenance & Repair with 2 years experience in the automotive industry in UK. I also hold a MOT testing license. I moved to UK in 2002. I took primary, secondary and tertiary education in the UK and would like to know if I need to take an English IELTS test? The Engineers Australia Migration Skills Assessment booklet states: https://www.engineersaustralia.org.au/sites/default/files/2017-11/MSA Booklet August 2017 - PTE updates.pdf The following applicants may be exempt from the requirement to provide an English language test: • Applicants who have completed an Australian undergraduate engineering qualification • Applicants who are native English speakers. A native English speaker is a person who lived and was educated (primary, secondary and tertiary education) in the country where the official language is English: Australia, New Zealand, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Canada Questions: 1. Do I need to take an English IELTS test and if so what band score should I aim for? 2. Would I be better by applying for a Skilled Independent Visa (189)? 3. Which field of work has a better chance of me obtaining a visa either engineering or automotive? 4. Should I go through a UK agency to aid me with skills assessment / visa application or is this a process which can be done without an agency? 5. Is there any specific CV layout in Australia which I should be aware of? These are the questions I have currently any help appreciated.. Thanks, Saif
