shortage occupation list

Post by pieterkley83 » Mon May 18, 2009 8:47 pm

Hi there.

My partner is a chef, and i have seen that being a chef falls under the shortage occupation list.

How does this affect a switch of jobs as a current workpermit holder?

Basically it means chefs get more points, if the job is paid enough. There are transitional arrangements for current work permit holders anyway.

Sorry, but your question is a bit open. Please can you be a bit more specific.

Regards

well what i would like to know is what are the requirements for switching to a new job?

does the job need to be advertised etc by the employer?
