Hi Markos, and welcome to the Oz Visa Forum community!
Thanks for sharing your background — with over 10 years of experience in the electrical field, especially across the diverse areas you’ve highlighted, I’d say you’re in a strong position to explore work opportunities in Australia.
To get started, here are a few steps you can take:
Target visa types: You may want to explore the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) 482 visa, which allows Australian employers to sponsor overseas workers in occupations on the skilled list. Given your experience, you may also qualify for permanent visas like the 189 Skilled Independent or 190 State Nominated visa, depending on your points and English language ability.
Skills assessment: For most skilled visas, you’ll need a positive skills assessment. In your case, this might be through Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) or Engineers Australia, depending on how your qualifications are assessed.
Job search: A good place to start is our job board, https://482jobs.com, where all roles offer employer sponsorship. Seek.com.au and indeed.com.au are other great sites though you will need to filter to ID the sponsored roles.
Tailor your CV and cover letter to Australian standards, and highlight your hands-on experience and relevant qualifications.
Visa process: Once you find a job offer, your employer can nominate you for the 482 visa. After approval, you can travel and begin working in Australia. If you meet the requirements, there may be a pathway to permanent residency down the line.
Feel free to reply here with specific questions, and we’ll do our best to help.
Wishing you all the best with your journey!
Regards, Mark
