飞出国：VETASSESS负责澳洲技术移民中360个普通职业以及28个技工职业的职业评估，可以说是技术移民申请人中有相当一大部分的群体会需要做VETASSESS职业评估，那么VETASSESS职业评估需要了解哪些基本知识点呢？我们来看看VETASSESS官方给出的9大提示！
1. 选择正确的提名职业
这一步骤应该是每个申请人最难确定的一个环节。VETASSESS会审核申请人的工作情况，结合申请人的学历水平，工作经验，包括工作职业晋升路径，学历与工作的相关性等，都是需要综合考虑的。
- Choosing the right occupation for a skills assessment can be the most difficult step in the process. Your skills will be assessed against Australian standards for the occupation you nominate, which measure these key points:
- your qualifications (level)
- your work experience, including:
- the time you have spent working in your role (career progression)
- how your qualifications and employment experience interact, or collectively meet criteria for the occupation.
2. 了解工作类别以及是否满足要求
这一点并没有看起来的那么容易。申请人在自己国家从事某项工作所需要的学历水平和资质水平与澳洲当地行业要求是可能大有不同的。VETASSESS评估申请人是按照ANZSCO定义来的，ANZSCO有定义每个职业的学历，工作以及技能水平。申请人容易低估职业类别的要求，比如，对于一般的专业类职业来讲，不仅仅是要有相关工作经验，还会要有对应的学历水平要求。
- Know your job category and how you fit into it. This isn’t as obvious as it might seem. Be aware that your qualifications and how you perform the job may differ from how Australian industries operate even though it’s the standard in your home country. We assess employment roles against the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO), which lists the benchmark qualifications, employment and the expected skill level required for each occupation.
Don’t underestimate the requirements of your occupation category – for example, for professional occupations it’s not enough to only have practical experience or to have worked in a senior role in an occupation if you don’t hold the required qualification level specified in our criteria.
3. 如果不满足某一个职业的要求，可以考虑换其他职业
申请人如果发现不满足某一个职业的要求，可以考虑换其他职业。比如申请人当前的实际工作职位是科学家级别的，但是不满足澳洲该职业定义的学历水平要求，那么申请人可以考虑降级申请，比如技术员级别。
- Don’t despair if you don’t meet the exact criteria for an occupation. You may have other options. For example, we assess more than 360 occupations. Although you may hold the position of a scientist in your current job, you might not meet the qualification level criteria that Australia requires. However, you may be able to apply as a skilled migrant in another category, such as at the technician level.
4. 申请人的学历不仅要与职业相关还要是高度相关才可以
这里举例说明，比如牙科保健员的高度相关专业硬是牙科保健，牙科保健治疗或者口腔健康治疗。但是如果学历或者工作内容是牙医或者口腔外科是不能评估成牙科保健员这个职业的。
- In many categories of occupation, your major field of study must not only relate to your occupation but be assessed as “highly relevant”.
As an example, the role of dental hygienist requires highly relevant qualifications in the area of dental hygiene, dental hygiene therapy or oral health therapy. Studies and employment in dentistry or dental surgery cannot be assessed positively for this occupation because they are not considered highly relevant to current Australian industry standard practice.
5. 申请人要确认自己的主要职责
申请人的实际工作中可能身兼多职，但是需要确认自己所做的主要工作是与提名职业相关的，且满足该提名职业的技能水平要求。
- Be certain about your primary employment role. This must relate primarily to your nominated occupation for skills assessment purposes. You might perform several roles in your organisation, but you need to have worked in the role of your nominated occupation and performed tasks at the required skill level of that occupation as it is outlined in ANZSCO.
6. 申请人要确认工作经验是与提名职业高度相关的
申请人经常性会以为只要从事的是该行业的工作，那么只要是该行业的不同职业都是可以的。虽然申请人有能力从事该行业的不同职业，但是从职业评估来说，申请人需要实际履历是从事该职业的，且符合技能水平要求。举例说，市场相关的常见职业有两个，一个是市场专员，一个是是市场研究分析师，如果申请人实际做的是市场研究分析师，那么就不要以为可以按照市场专员来评估。
- Ensure your employment experience is highly relevant to your nominated occupation. Applicants can make the mistake of assuming that because they have worked in a particular job in their industry, they could easily perform another role in that industry.
You possibly could do the job, but for skills assessment purposes you need to demonstrate that you have actually performed the job and at the skill level required.
7. 申请人需要确认可以提供证明其职位级别的材料
对于一些管理岗职业以及一些其他职业，VETASSESS职评会要求提供组织结构图或者参与过的项目证明材料。VETASSESS会评估申请人在其公司的职位级别，职责范围，权限范围，在组织结构中的位置，且是否在组织结构图中有体现。
- Ensure you can prove your level of seniority . We will look for evidence of your position within the organisations where you have worked. Can you demonstrate your scope of responsibility and level of authority in the work you have performed? Where do you sit within the organisational structure? Is this shown on an organisational chart you can provide? For assessment of our managerial occupations and some additional ones we require an organisational chart. The types of proof we require may also include evidence of projects you have been involved in.
8. 申请人要明白职业评估需要综合看学历和工作履历
比如VETASSESS对于Group B职业要求申请人有本科学位，申请人可以是有相关专业的本科以及近五年内有一年相关工作履历；或者是不相关专业的本科加上相关专业的专科，以及近五年内有两年相关工作履历；或者是不相关专业本科但是无其它学历，有近五年内三年相关工作履历。所以申请人不能只看部分要求，要全面看VETASSESS职评的要求。
- Understand the combination of qualification and employment that you will need before you apply. This is where applicants can easily go wrong by applying when they only meet some of the criteria.
For example, in some of the occupations we assess that require a Bachelor degree, you can apply with a:
- Qualification(s) assessed at AQF Bachelor degree (or higher degree) with a highly relevant field of study and at least one year of post-qualification highly relevant employment performed at the appropriate skill level in the last five years
or* Qualification(s) assessed at AQF Bachelor degree (or higher degree) with an additional qualification assessed at the level of an Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) Diploma level in a highly relevant field of study and at least two years of post-qualification highly relevant employment performed at the appropriate skill level in the last five years.
or* Qualification(s) assessed at AQF Bachelor degree (or higher degree) without a highly relevant field of study and at least three years of post-qualification highly relevant employment performed at the appropriate skill level in the last five years.Be aware that the above level of assessments considers your work experience after you gained your Bachelor degree level qualification, but you can also apply with pre-qualification employment and there are different rules around this.
9. 如果申请人是自雇，则需要按照自雇提供相关证明材料
对于自雇的申请人，申请人需要提供会计或者律师出具的证明信，证明自雇营业登记信息，自雇业务类型，自雇的起始时间等，同时还需要提供法定声明，收入的银行流水，客户发票，税务证明，合同，客户证明，项目证明等。
- If you are self-employed in a professional occupation, you will have to provide evidence of this such as documentation from your accountant or lawyer confirming business registration details, the type of business, and the dates stating the times of your self-employment, or official business or sole trading registration documentation. You will also need to provide a statutory declaration listing your main duties during self-employment.
Other evidence may include bank statements showing you have received regular income from your self-employment with corresponding client invoices, taxation evidence, contracts, client testimonials and evidence of projects.
VETASSESS职业评估对于不同的职业要求不同，如果是刚好符合职评机构所定义的评估标准，职业评估做起来可能会容易些，如果有特殊情况或者对于官方要求理解不到位，则需要有更多的专业投入，职业评估是技术移民的首要条件。
