Hi Henry, welcome to Oz Visa Forum and thanks for sharing your background!
After looking over your qualifications and experience, it’s important to align your occupation with the appropriate ANZSCO (Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations) code to determine eligibility for Australian skilled migration visas.
Potential ANZSCO Codes:
-

Considerations:
- Educational Background: Your bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering aligns with the qualifications required for the Mechanical Engineer role (ANZSCO 233512).
- Work Experience: Your six years of experience as a Process Mechanical Artisan in the brewery industry may correspond more closely with the duties of a Mechanical Engineering Technician (ANZSCO 312512).
