Hi all

I'm currently in Australia on a 485 visa, having completed my undergraduate and master's studies in Australia.

I'm working as a Research Assistant with the university that I studied with, in a project which is, in all sense and purposes, a management consulting project.

Having read the VETASSESS requirements for skills assessment as a management consultant, I'm confident that I am meeting most of the requirements, including hours of work (20 a week), and duties (all conforming to the VETASSESS requirements).

The only thing that I'm currently worried about is whether my experience would count as "closely related employment", because of my official job title and the nature of the employer.

Any advice is most appreciated.

If the daily duties you perform correspond with those of a skilled occupation that has the same first 4 ANZSCO digits as your nominated occupation, you should be ok,
