ACS Skills Assessment Application
Hi All
I finally managed to get my documents certified £30 for 3 copies of 22 docs.
Not bad considering the magistrates wanted £8 per stamp!!!
Anyhow I need to get the application form filled in and sent the lot off. What is the best way to present the docs.
They are all hole punched at the minute in my folder, but I'll be taking them out of the folder to send them. Should I paper clip relevant parts together?
For example should I paper clip the personal references from managers to the Main headed paper reference from HR? Should I paper clip the Degree certificate to the testamur?
Any advise appreciated, I want to get this right first time!!!
Thanks

Re: ACS Skills Assessment Application
Hi Mark I actually sent my ACS Forms today! I broke down my application into relevant sections. Forms, CV, Detailed written summary of experiece, references, degree and transcript.
I made a header for each section and stapled all the forms together! TIme will tell I guess if its the right way. But I guess my aim was just to make it as easy as possible for the assesor to get the info he wanted quickly and easily!
Anyway hope this helps and good luck!!!

PS what visa are you applying for and how many employers references did you get? I've only had two jobs in 8 years so mine were pretty easy to get!

Re: ACS Skills Assessment Application
Just make sure they are in neat order, if anything is not clear cut, attach a sheet with explanations. One of my employers who I worked for closed down so I had to get letters from my previous co-workers stating that they worked with me at that company and description of what I did.
I finally got my result from ACS the other day and going forward with the next step.

I've only worked for 2 companies in the last 7 years, however I had 4 different managers at the last company and I've managed to get in touch with them all to get personal references to back up my day to day duties. It seemed like a lot to do when I started, however it all fell in to place nicely.
Good luck and thanks
Mark
