Getting my career validated as an industrial engineer in Australia took me almost a year. And no, it wasn’t due to a lack of effort. It was due to burnout, fear, and misinformation. I started the process from Colombia because I was clear from the beginning that I wanted to apply for permanent residency. And for that, I needed to validate my degree.

If you’re looking to advance your career in Australia, LinkedIn is not just a digital CV; it’s your cover letter, your network of opportunities, and often the difference between being noticed or overlooked by employers and recruiters.

If you are an engineer considering migrating to Australia, you’ve probably heard about the Skills Assessment process conducted through Engineers Australia. This is an essential step to legally work as an engineer in the country. However, the process may seem complicated if you’re not familiar with it.
