May I suggest that you run your case past a registered migration agent to ascertain whether a viable visa strategy can be developed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northshorepom Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 erm... they don't sound the same to me... my opinion. It depends Many Quantity Surveyors work as estimators, or in estimating. In the civil engineering/construction world it is a sort of specialist branch of QSing It doesn't necessarily translate the other way. If someone has become an estimator through a less structured route rather than been a generalist QS who has gone into estimating then they'll have more hops to jump through to show they have the broad range of skills of a QS AIQS website (or an enquiry to them) ought to have the information as to what is required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
