Greetings to all,

I have sent my application to CIO Sydney,with my fingers crossed,as i had applied for FSW in 2006 and my case was rejected becuz of low points got,65,but now since i got married and my wife got a diploma hope my points will increase but i was shocked with the big changes in the new list of jobs that cab apply for category 1 of FSW, anyhow, I got a bachelor degree in Electrical engineering majoring in electronics and worked 3 years as electronic technician and 1 year as electrical engineer then 4 years as INSTRUMENT TECHNICIAN on a drilling rig, i have choosed INSTRUMENT TECHNICIAN as my first choice of assessment against the listed NOC 7242 industrial electrician ,my inquiry is that my job title is not same as industrial electrical job titles listed on the CIC website,and my job description focuses mainly on dealing with electronic and control systems repairs and maintenance.....do i stand a chance to qualify under the NOC 7242 industrial electrician ,

one more inquiry , i sent my application by courier service but by mistake wrote down the address given for regular mail address by the CIO would that affect my application or delay.

best regards.

Hi Ramzy2277,

I think you work experience as INSTRUMENT TECHNICIAN will not effect you filing you under NOC code 7242 though your job title is not in NOC listed names, It is your roles and responsibilities which matter i.e. like measruing currents voltages etc. Atleast some roles and responsilities should match with those specified in 7242 code. I remember one aspirant got visa though he was in specialist in Robotics and his designation was not in list of 7242 NOC.

Best of Luck.
