Will it be possible for us?
Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone will be able to tell me if it's worth getting all excited about the possibility of migrating to Australia?
I've looked at the list of trades in demand. My hubby is a metering engineer, in that he installs electric meters into homes/factories/schools etc for a national power company. He has no City and Guilds qualifications but has been on the job trained and has done the job for at least 5 years (I think, need to check with him). His qualifications/certificates are all from his employer.
I don't want to get my hopes up only for them to say he's not qualified in the area they want or that he's not had enough experience.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
