MisterTentacles Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Looking for anyone who can shed some light on my predicament. I am a graduate of BSc and MSc in Industrial Engineering (currently holding a 476 visa because of that), however my work experience after graduation is in Usability (Human Factors), which is just a small subset or sub-specialization of Industrial Engineering. Hence, it is rather uncommon for IEs to practice usability, but believe me, it is a very interesting field. I plan to apply for a 189 visa as my path to residency after my 476 visa expires but I am worried that in my skills assessment, Engineers Australia might not recognize my work experience as being in line with my educational qualification. What should I do? Should I risk spending for skills assessment given this uncertainty? And has anyone been in a similar situation? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

VERYSTORMY Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Most engineering occupations don't require experience to pass a skills assessment. However, if you need to claim points for experience it may be a bigger issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
