Bob

HR Advisor of a Heavy Vehicle Mechanical Repair company in Western Australia

We recently experienced problems finding a suitable applicant for an important H/D mechanic position. Skill shortage solutions quickly referred a recent arrival with appropriate working visa arrangement to us. The applicant started with us a few days later and is working out well, a professional service that I can recommend.

Electrician

Cork, Ireland

I had been in Sydney looking for job for almost a month and things were not working for me. I contacted Jason at Skill Shortage Solutions who was already assisting me with gaining an Electrical license. He immediately knew what to do and 24 hours later I had 3 jobs offers in Sydney. I am now working full time as an Electrician. Thanks again for your help and I will be sure to tell my friends about Skill Shortage Solutions.

Electrician

I was trying to get an Electrical job in Sydney for months with no luck, I applied for a job with Skill Shortage Solutions and they explained the process of gaining an Australian Electrical Licence. They then took me step by step through the whole process and when I secured an Electrical licence they landed me a well paid job and visa sponsorship with a large Australian Electrical Contracting company.

After I received my Australian Nursing Registration I contacted Skill Shortage Solutions. They quickly put me in contact with an Australian Healthcare Recruitment Specialist who arranged for me to be interviewed by an Australian hospital, shortly after they offered me visa sponsorship and a new life in Sydney.

I was in Australia on a working holiday visa for several weeks and having no luck securing employment, I contacted Skill Shortage Solutions. They made me a professional CV and sent it to several companies. I was called for and interviewed for a job offering sponsorship less than a week later and I am still there today!

 

Paul

Electrician

Kildare, Ireland

Attended the Electricians Seminar in Dublin 19th of June 2010

I think the seminar was absolutely brilliant to be honest. If ye want my overall opinion on it, well I thought it covered everything it needed to cover and more. It gave the lads looking for a one year working holiday visa all the stuff they needed and likewise the lads looking to go the permanent migration visa route. The category I fell into was the sponsored working visa as I have been over there before and I feel this is the best option for me. I have been searching the internet the last 3 or 4 months trying to find this and that about visa's and everything else and it can be all very confusing to be honest and takes up hours upon hours of time.

 To go into your seminar for a few hours and come out of it with all the answers to my questions and more, it was bloody great. Finally somewhere we can get answers for Australia without spending hours on the computer and still probably not find what your looking for.

 Also to have tracked down companies that actually will sponsor Irish/ English Electricians when they do get a provisional trade license is absolute class mate. It's like spoon feeding us the information which to be fair we all love.

I have already told 3 more people who you are and gave them the email address and I am positive they'll be in touch.

 Thanks for making sense of it all for me personally anyway mate.


Niall

Electrician

Cork, Ireland

I wanted to go to Australia on a working holiday visa but I heard you need an Electrical Licence to work as an Electrician down under so I spent almost 6 months researching on how to gain an Australian Electrical Licence which proved to be harder then I had expected especially doing it on my own, when I finally gained the ability to hold a licence I started looking for work in Australia with not much luck, until I contacted Skill Shortage Solutions. I had a phone interview with Jason and within 24 hours I was offered a full time Electrical position in Australia. I started work in New South Wales less than a week later and my new employer is going to sponsor me and my family after I complete my trial period successfully. Thanks a million Skill Shortage Solutions.  

 


Richard

Concreter

Dublin, Ireland

I applied for a position with Skill Shortage Solutions, based with a construction company in Melbourne; within 6 weeks I had started with my new employer on a working holiday visa and they have already agreed to sponsor me and my partner. It’s fantastic to be working full time again and being in a secure environment, not to mention living in the sunshine.


Nicholas

Electrician

Louth, Ireland

I spent 15 months out of work and was so tired of searching for employment in Ireland. My wife and I had been discussing moving to Australia, but where to start was the next big step. After searching the internet for work in Oz. I came across Skill Shortage Solutions based in Ireland so I decided to email them and suss it out. Jason Greene immediately replied and offered me the chance to attend one of his Electricians seminars. At the seminar he explained everything in so much detail in such a short time that myself and my wife knew ''this fella knows what he is talking about''. The next day I sent Skill Shortage Solutions my details and proceeded with their visa and skills recognition services so I could gain the ability to hold an Australian Electrical License. Within a matter of days I had sent off all my paper work which was requested. Waiting on the results of my skills assessment left us anxious but I was re-assured that my application was strong and true to his word less than 3 months after attending the seminar I had not only passed my assessment but I also had a job waiting for me with one of the companies Jason presented at the Electricians Seminar. Skill Shortage Solutions were prompt in their replies and explained everything in detail from start to finish. And the skills assessment and visa fee was much LESS than other companies. I am heading to Queensland on the 22nd Jan 2011 and start work on the 31st, which was all made possible with the aid of Jason and all at Skill Shortage Solutions.

Thank you so much.

Coilin

Dentist

Co. Kerry, Ireland

I had decided to move to Australia on a working holiday visa when I applied for a job in Sydney through Skill Shortage Solutions. I was quickly called and interviewed for the job, Skill Shortage Solutions explained everything I needed to know including that I required Australian Dental Registration, after looking into the registration process I decided to get Skill Shortage Solutions to assist me with my application which was successful. Soon after I had applied for registration Skill Shortage Solutions had a Dental Organization in Sydney interested in employing me permanently.

 2 months later I started working with the company in Sydney on my working holiday visa and within 6 weeks the company offered to sponsor myself and my partner on a 4 year work visa. Thank you Skill Shortage Solutions!

 

David

Electrician

Co. Dublin, Ireland

When I found out that Electricians needed a license to work in Australia, I was lost as to where to start. So I went to a Skill Shortage Solutions Electricians seminar and after 1 to 2 hours Jason had nailed everything I needed to know from skill recognition, to licensing, CV preparation and the various visa's available to me.

I proceeded with a Premium Package working holiday visa and skills recognition through Skill Shortage Solutions.

After I had my skills recognized, I started sending my Professional CV & Cover Letter to Australian companies in Perth, within 10 minutes I had already received a possible sponsorship job offer and now with less than 3 weeks before I head to Perth, I have a couple of job offers to chose from.

The difference between Skill Shortage and other migration agents is that, they’ll get you working ASAP!!

Thanks to all at Skill Shortage Solutions!


David

Electrician

Middleton, Cork, Ireland

I found Skills Shortage Solutions to be an excellent service all round, Straight away after the Electricians Seminar I decided to get my skills recognized and a working holiday visa with Skill Shortage Solutions, I was also given clear, concise step by step instructions on everything I needed to do in regards to gaining an Australian Electrical License. The whole process was far quicker than I expected and 90% of it was done through email. Anytime I had any difficulty or was in any doubt I simply called the office or Jason’s mobile and was assisted there and then. I landed in Australia in early February 2011 and I am starting with an Electrical company that Skill Shortage Solutions has organized for me.

Jason Greene and his team at Skill Shortage Solutions were more helpful than they had to be.  It made my move Down Under so easy that there were times I thought it was too good to be true.  I arrived in Australia with everything imaginable already sorted from CV's, visas, TFN and most importantly a JOB!!
 
Thanks again Jason.

Chris said after we informed him that his skills recognition application was successful:

“Cheers and thanks for all your help well, worth getting it all started when I was in Ireland. Ill def recommend you to anyone I know in the same position coming from home”


Philip, Electrician relocated from Ireland to Australia and used our Skills Recognition Services:

John

Electrician

Co. Tipperary, Ireland

In January 2011 I called skill shortage solutions about a working holiday visa for Australia and also how to apply for my electrical license. I found them to be very helpful with all the information I needed plus anything else I was unsure of, they quickly helped me out in regards to getting my Electrical License. They got me my working holiday visa and set me up with a bank account before I arrived in Perth they also got everything I needed to apply for my Electrical License before I left Ireland. Upon arriving in Australia I called them to keep in touch and I was only here for 4 days when they set me up with a job and visa sponsorship. I would highly recommend skill shortage solutions as the best visa company around they are very professional and friendly and have all the information anyone needs about visas.

Hi Jason, I just wanted to let you know my latest news since I was in contact with you last. I was told today that my 457 visa has been granted for me and my girlfriend I am working with a great company in Brisbane and I have obtained my Queensland electrical licence

Julie Burke was also a great help and she looked after my visa application. I just wanted to thank you Jason for all your help for without it i would not have achieved my sponsorship visa. I can now look forward to four years working here.

I have spread the word about skill shortage solutions to other electricians who are looking to work in Australia

Thanks again Jason


Conor

Electrician

I attended Skill Shortage Solutions first ever Electricians seminar in Cork. Jason provided all the information I needed as to the right pathway to gain a new life in Australia and an Electrical license. He couldn’t have made things easier, he took all the stress out of it, all I had to do was get on the plane!  Shortly after I landed I had numerous job offers emailed to me via Jason, and now thanks to him and his team I have a great full time job in Perth with guaranteed visa sponsorship. Many thanks to you and your team Jason, I will be recommending you to all my friends!

I found Skill Shortage Solutions very helpful in getting my visa sorted for Australia as only for them i would never have succeeded. They helped me in every step of the way including licensing, sponsorship visa and they set me up with a job also which i found great, I am here in Australia about two weeks now and i would recommend it to anyone. If you are thinking about moving down under I strongly recommend you contact Skill Shortage Solutions and let them guide you through the process and again i say these guys are very helpful and I would give them 10 out of 10 for all the help they gave me.


Kevin

I used skill shortage solutions to assist me in getting my skills recognized before I went to Australia.  Skill shortage solutions was more than helpful with any questions I needed answered and my skills assessment was successful. Since I have arrived in Australia, skill shortage solutions still keeps in contact with me and keeps me posted on any jobs opportunity’s that might be of interest too me. I would highly recommend skill shortage solutions to anyone interested in getting their skills recognised in Australia.

Philip

Electrician

Cork, Ireland

I was in Australia on a working holiday visa in 2005 and found it very hard to find electrical work or get sponsored as I did not have an Electrical license. When then recession hit Ireland in 2008 I knew it was time to go, so I applied for permanent residency and after a long but worthwhile wait I finally received my 176 permanent resident visa. I was not going to make the same mistake again so I contacted skill shortage solutions before I left Ireland and they assisted me with the licensing process from start to finish. I am now living very comfortably in Perth, I have a well paid job and a real future ahead of me. If was great to have all my paperwork in order on arrival and be able to get my electrical license so quickly. Thank you for all your help, it was worth every penny!!


Micheal

Electrician

Co. Kerry, Ireland

I had the ability to gain an electrical license and I had a one year working holiday visa but I was struggling to find a long term Electrical employer in Perth. After contacting skill shortage solutions, they said my skills and experience were very good and they felt they would have no issue finding an employer for me. A few weeks later I was offered a well-paying electrical job in Perth with a client of skill shortage solutions, a company who is interested in sponsoring me once I have completed a trial.
