    • Hi Jurica, if I’m being honest I think you will struggle. Since the downturn in the mining sector here in Austrralia more people are looisng there jobs in mining than being recruited at the moment so focusing in this space might be a challenge.

    • Hi Alex, these are just references to the notes at the very bottom of the list:

      ANZSCO means the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and current as at
      1 July 2016.
      nec means “not elsewhere classified”.
      * Judges and Magistrates are appointed positions, appointed by the Attorney General’s Department.
      ** Tribunal Member comprises a large number of different positions appointed by different relevant agencies.
      *** indicates that, despite paragraphs 2, 5 and 6, for a nomination or visa application for a Subclass 457 visa or a Subclass 186 visa, the occupation excludes positions in Fast Food or Takeaway Food Service.
      **** indicates that Minister of Religion is specified as a skilled occupation only for the purposes of paragraph 2.72I(5)(ba) of the Regulations, and only in relation to an application for a Subclass 402 Training and Research visa. Minister of Religion is not specified as a skilled occupation in relation to any other visa subclass, despite paragraphs 2, 5, 6 and 8.

      Hope this helps clarify?

    • Hi Alex and sorry for the delay.

      Best to refer to the bottom of the list:

22. Hii, My name is R.Uthayraj, i am a sri lankan and I’m looking for a job in Conference & I do have 7years Mechanical Engineer (233512) already. I just didn’t get it how do I get the visa. Do I have to find the job first? How should I proceed to get the job and the visa? Where should I apply?
    Thank you

    • Hi There, for some visa types (eg the 457 sponsored visa) you would find the job first. You can find the types of jobs where the employer is looking to sponsor candidates to move to Australia here http://457jobsaustralia.com.

      With regards to the general skilled migration route. You need to lodge an Expression Of Interest. More info here: https://gettingdownunder.com/job-australian-sol-what-next/

23. Hello Mark,

    My name is Petra and I am from Croatia.
    I hold a Bachelor and a Master in Landscape Architecture, and recently a Master in Conservation Leadership at the University of Cambridge; which is a Master’s for conservation/environmnetal professionals with several years of relevant experience and provided me with an overall perspective in addressing the complex environmental global challenges.
    To sum up I have over 7 years of professional experience in nature conservation public sector
    and so my question is as my Master’s Degree in Landscape Architecture is nominated under the Australian Skilled Occupations List for 2016 -2017 but I have over 7 years of experience in conservation sector and a recent Master in Conservation Leadership under which occupational list should I apply…?

    Thank you kindly in advance.
    Petra

    • Hi Petra, I guess it depends on where you have the most experience and skills.

      Probably the best way to think about it is if you were applying for a job in Croatia, what skills and experience would help you get the job first?

      This is probably the occupation you should use as a basis for nomination. :)

      All the best

38. Hi Mark

    I’m an Australian citizen and my wife is an Bangladeshi citizen,

    currently I’m living in Bangladesh and waiting for our new born baby to delivery on next month who will be a Australian citizen by descent

    Problem is my wife still did not applied for her PR or tourist visa, After baby birth i will go back to Australia and start work but I want to take my baby and wife along with me because I dont feel safe for leave them in here and also its not possible for me to look after the baby myself while i’m working so in this case what visa should I apply for my wife so she can go with us to Australia and look after the baby

    I was wondering if there is any special circumtance for this? like she get 3/6 months visa than later she can apply her PR from Australia?

    Please kindly suggest me

    Thanks
    Shane

    • Hi Shane, firstly I would double check on the Australian Citizenship by descent for your baby. Although the application process should be a straight forward one for your baby. I’m not sure if it would be as straight forward as you may suggest, even though you are a Aussie citizen.

      as for your wide, you will need to apply for a spouse visa/pr. As I understand it there are options for your wife to visit Australia for visits of the durations you have suggested.

      Visit here for more information on this visa class. https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/801- Lots of useful information here.

    • Hi Ajay

      It’s always difficult to comment on your chances because it’s governed by both your circumstances / points and the circumstances / points of the other applicant who have registered an EOI.

      Critical ages for all skilled visas are : 29, 34, 39, 44 and final cut off date is age 49 and 364 days.
      For business skills visa applications – age 54 is critical!
      For retirement visas the main applicant must be age 55 +

53. Hi,
    My name iz Zeljka, I’m 36 years old Croatian. I graduated at Academy of Fine Arts restoration of paintings and wooden sculptures, also I have experience in restaurants as a line cook, as a elementary school teacher of art, as a manager in food industry, art exhibition organizer, sales person, etc. How can I apply and for what kind of job on your list I could apply and what do you exactly offer? I worked in Canada 2 and half years.

    • Hi Zelika, firstly to be clear please note we are not the people offering this role. Getting Down Under simply provides advice for people looking to move to Australia (I launched this website after I moved to Australia myself 10 years ago) :)

      Can I suggest you identify the job title most likely to be a job you can easily demonstrate your experience in and we’ll take it from there. Please start a new post in our forums. You can find our forums here: https://gettingdownunder.com/forums/forum/thinking-about-it/ Its proving tricky to track all the replied in these comments so the forums make it easier. :)

60. Hello. I am a dentist,and i would love to know something more about procedure off applying for tjat type of job. If anyone could help me,i would be really thankfull.. cheers

    • Hi Matija, this updated does not bring good news for you I’m afraid. As per the article a number of roles have been removed from the list including

      • Dental Hygienists [411211]
      • Dental Prosthetists [411212]
      • dental Technicians [411213]
      • dental Therapists [411214]

      One of the conditions of the skilled Australian visa streams is that your occupation has to appear ON this list. I would note that the general ‘Dentist’ is still listed!

      Unless your in a position to apply and be approved before the end of June your options may be somewhat limited I’m afraid. To avoid any further questions being lost in our comments, please post in our forums. https://gettingdownunder.com/forums/

61. To whom it may concern,

    My name is Milica and I come from Croatia. As I skimmed through the occupations you require, I simply cannot resist to ask you what are my chances to relocate to Australia considering that my degrees are a qualified pre school teacher and early child development and I also graduated Management in Rural Tourism and had a chance to participate in a project and developmental tourism plan. My specialties are creating new and enriching existing tourism products and in such way to contribute to rural development and particularly to sustainability and cultural heritage preservation. Destination management is also may field of interest because it is very important in tourism industry to know other destinations and their main products.

    Thank you for your time,

    Milica Sokec

    • Hello Milica and thanks for your question. :)

      You education is important however your experience is key when applying for an Australian visa. If you have some good teaching experience this is certianly an area considered in demand at the moment.
