Guest jenniemccutcheon Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 When looking at the skilled list it said Sales & Marketing Manager. My husband is a sales manager, has done the job for 10 years. He is in Shipping and has worked for big names. His degree is in History (useful!) from St Andrews. However, the description for their assessment says you need to have worked in a business with 600 employees? He has had 5 under him. Do they test you? Is there an exam? Should he re-train at night school to be a painter or something and if he did would that get us in? Help please. How do we get there? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EM&M Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Hi jennie, My past history is Hotel Sales & marketing manager. I got in touch with my agent as queried the sales manager route. She told me this is the hardest skill to enter by as its not assessed by TRA. I will cut and paste her reply:- If you look at the skilled occupation list, to the right, you will see that Sales and Marketing Manager is not assessed by TRA. TRA cannot assess this occupation. Trades Recognition Australia, mainly assesses the Trades people. Sales and Marketing Manager is assessed by AIM and this is the most strict of all assessments. You need to prove that you are at a VERY high level of Management, such as CEO etc in a huge organisation, implementing policy development etc. Hope that info helps Em x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
