query regarding job-switch-assessment
Hope you must be doing great. I have couple of queries to ask.
I have already got my positive skill assessment in April-2014. I got assessed overseas experience of 7 years and 8 months. Now I have the opportunity to work in better organization but with same job responsibilities which I am doing currently and which are already assessed by the engineers Australia. Now my questions are,
(1) If I switch my job and join another organization with same job responsibilities, do I have to get my further experience assessed for new organization from Engineers Australia? Because I need another 4 months experience to complete my 8 years overseas work experience, and having 8 years overseas work experience means I can claim 15 points for an immigration purpose.
(2) Suppose if your answer is “YES” that I will have to get the positive assessment for new organization. What is the procedure then? Do I have to write the CDR again? And what supporting documents are required. Please guide.

Otherwise you could check with EA about getting a new employment assessed. I know I didn't have employment assessed - I just supplied references, payslips etc.

Skilled employment is where:
•the relevant assessing authority provides an opinion in your suitable skills assessment that your employment is skilled (you must use the date that skilled employment commenced stated in your skills assessment)
•your employment experience meets the standards for skilled employment set by the relevant assessing authority on their website.

Re: query regarding job-switch-assessment
i am not able to completely grab the meaning of ur pasted DIPB statements... would u translate it for me in simpler words? do i have to just get the opinion from engineersaust for new employer's job? but i haven't seen the procedure even though i ve thoroughly gone through the website. what you suggest??
in plain words, can u be fairly sure that i will not have to get new assessment for new employer?

(At the bottom of the page is a form for skilled employment assessment - not sure if this can be done separately which is why I said contact them.)
You seem reluctant to get an assessment though so your gamble I guess to just claim the points without the assessment and hope DIBP agree. Hopefully the new job will go well after being unemployed since April - not fun

Re: query regarding job-switch-assessment
this is copy paste from the link you mentioned....
"for those who have at least 1 year Australian work experience, and / or at least 3 years Overseas work experience in their nominated occupation or a closely-related occupation, then an additional assessing service is available to provide an opinion on the skilled employment claims. High-level evidence will be required to support any claim of work experience as well as completion of this form. (Extra fee applicable - $250 + GST)
See Section D of the July 2012 edition of the MSA Booklet for details.""""
what i grabbed from this, you need to have minimum three years overseas work exp to get an opinion from EA........ wht u say??

Re: query regarding job-switch-assessment
Getting work experience assessed is entirely optional anyway, so you are not going to find any rule about whether you need to get the last few months assessed - because none of it needed to be assessed.
I am sure EA will advise that you do get it assessed however, because that is more fee income for them,
