tommo007 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 If so would really like to know how it went and did it take a long time? Beginning to worry whether we put enough info on the form! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cordanuk Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I originaly applied for Special CLass but got assigned Geneeral after Skype interview with Vic Uni. I started my application around march time last year and got it in August. Btw if your going with Vic Uni, the rules have changed check out energy safe vic site for details. Energysafe have really muddied the waters now. Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommo007 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 Thanks Justin, I hope you don't mind me asking but why did they change to Electrician General? My thinking was General is if you do domestic work and Special Class if Industrial? Do you know if that's correct or am I totally wrong? It's my husband applying but me doing all the paperwork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your in ACT we're still unsure where to go ( if we ever get past this skills assessment) however my sister lives just outside of ACT about30km have you been there long?

It's my husband applying but me doing all the paperwork Hi No I have had experience in all fields. But contracting is mainly what Ive done. At the moment I specialise in SELV systems for hospitals, but the whole assesment was based upon all the syliabus for electricians in AU. They basicly asked me questions and provide examples of different situations in the interview. Every thing from Ohms law to power facor correct and cable selection. Talked a lot about health and saftey. But had to provide references from previous employers of work I had done in the past (ie Job descriptions and references). IMHO if I was you Id apply for General as that equals Electrical Mechanic and Special Class equals Electrical Fitter. But I stand corrected if I'm wrong. If you want any more info just ask.
