Hi all, I am new to all of this but me and my partner have been considering taking the move to Oz for the last few years. We considered going out on a Working Holiday visa three years ago but our careers took off and it just wasn't the right time. Since then, we have bought a home and we have started to consider making the move to oz again but doing it through the skilled visa option this time. Since 2015 i have been working as a Process Manager in a defence company in the UK and my partner works in insurance as a continuous improvement manager. Although my job title doesn't match, my job is essentially the same as the ICT Business Analyst (ANZSCO 261111) so this is the avenue we wanted to pursue. My main concern is I don't have a formal qualification in this, whilst I do have a BA (First Class) it is not related to my current work as my career trajectory changed considerably quite some time ago. There are comments about relevant work experience being considered (5 years) or vendor certification but i am not sure what this actually means for me. Is there anyone who has been through a similar situation and can offer some advice? Many thanks James
