TravellingKatherine Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I need some advice. I have been a qualified adult nurse almost 3 years. I was hoping to use my experience (once I get to 3 years in June) towards point a for a 189 visa but I'm really struggling to find someone from my previous employer to write the professional reference. If I decide not to use my experience for points assessment do I still need to supply all my work history in professional references or just prove that I've got 3 months working experience? I can get the points I need by getting a better score in my IELTS test. Unless anyone has advice on how to find someone at an old employer to write a reference?? Thank you!

Guest Priscilla101 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I used hr to write that I was employed from X till X. You can get a peer - who was your preceptee mentor or buddy on the areas you were in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravellingKatherine Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 Does it not have to comply with anmac's rules for a professional reference. They have an example letter of what it must include? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becks22 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You only need someone from your current role to do the ANMAC letter. There is no way around it though as the letter needs to include your skills based against the ANZSCO code you are asking to be assessed against. You need to do it exactly as they ask you to. They will also expect to see your work history but you just have to declare your CV to be true and accurate. You can chose to leave out your work experience when it comes to submitting your EOI if you don't want to claim points for it, but for anmac I think there isn't a choice. Is your current line manager or senior nurse not willing to do you one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravellingKatherine Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 My current boss will write one. I had understood I had to have references from all my previous employers if I wanted points for work experience. Will just have to work harder for my IELTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becks22 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 That might be for the actual visa aplication. My agent left out my work experience as I had 75 points with it. I was initially confused why she didn't add it in but I have heard of people having to hunt down references from companies that have gone bust etc maybe thats where it comes from? I have been through ANMAC and I only needed a statement of service covering how ever long they wanted, which HR did, the statement from my current manager in the format anmac want and a cv that I had signed to say that it was true and accurate. The only other stuff I sent was certified documents etc and stuff from the NMC. ANMAC have a checklist on their site I think which might be worth looking at. Good luck, hope you get the ielts points you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxlornaxx Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I didn't get refs from jobs for anmac as didn't need the points so to make it easier to prove I just left it out n put minimal work experience required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miss haggiyo Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 is it acceptable for ANMAC that the letter head is on top of the page but the contact details are placed below.. thats what the format of their official paper.. would this be fine with anmac?
