suryaprasanna Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Little background info. about me... I have completed a Master In business information technology from RMIT, then worked 2 years in a call center on 485 visa. As I was working I did not give much importance to IELTS and my visa ran out so I had to take a student visa again to stay in Australia (masters in business information systems) it finishes at June 2014. In May 2013 I got the required grades in IELTS and launched EOI(11/06/2013) as a ICT Business Analyst and 60 points (my age is 33 and I got 7 in IELTS ). I have still not got an invite and the chances seem very less as the ceiling would be almost reached. I think the options for me are to change occupation and get a different skills assessment or to try and take IELTS once again to boost my points (if I get 8 then I will get 20 points which will increase my score to 70 points). What do you think I should do? do I have any other option? any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suryaprasanna Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Do you think I could get an assessment as a ICT manager. I have completed Master of Business in Information technology+ Master of commerce as a double degree from RMIT. It has subjects such as IT strategy, business intelligence, information security, database management. I already have a skills assessment as a ICT business analyst but, I am beginning to think that it would take a long time to get an invite as DIAC has released new rules from 5th August.
