    Default Work Experience points-under local or Multinational Company for SMC?

    Dear Seniors,

    I need to know one thing.

    I have 6.5 years IT work experiences in a local reputed company in Bangladesh. The designation and experience matches with the LTSSL occupation (262113 Systems Administrator). Besides, my education is B.Sc. in Computer Science from Bangalore University, India (3 Years Degree) which is exempted from the NZQA Assessment.

    Now,as my work experience is from local company, will NZ immigration authority count the points for it (in EOI or PAR/IQA)?

    Or,

    They will need me work Experience under multinational company of a country which is listed or it's Headquarter is listed in the Comparable Labour Market?

    Here is the reference link from immigration site.
    http://www.immigration.govt.nz/opsmanual/i30570.htm

    I am confused. If any senior has experience on this , please suggest.

    Today I got a mail from NZQA for my PAR result and it is NZQF Level 7. Now, I will mention it in my EOI online application and re-submit it .

    Till now, nobody replied on my query.

    Ok, no problem. Again I have explained the details below.

    I have 6.5 years running IT work experiences in a local reputed company in Bangladesh. The designation and experiences matches with the LTSSL occupation (Systems Administrator). Besides, my education is B.Sc. in Computer Science from Bangalore University, India (3 Years Degree) which is in the NZQA Exemption list. So I can also claim bonus points from Education and work experience under the LTSSL condition.

    On 21-July-2011, I submitted online EOI (with payment) with 120 points. My total points are given below.

    Age- 30.5 year : 25 points
    Education- 3 years B.Sc.: 50 points
    (NZQF level 7 by PAR result)
    Working Experience- 6.5 Years- 20 points
    Bonus points for education under area of absolute skill shortage (LTSSL) - 10 points
    Bonus points for work experience under area of absolute skill shortage (LTSSL) - 15 points

    Now, I have the query. First read the below URL:
    http://www.immigration.govt.nz/opsmanual/i30570.htm

    According to the policy in SM11.10 (a and b) in the above URL, my working experience meets the requirements for recognition which are mentioned below.

    a(ii) relevant to the principal applicant’s recognised qualification (see SM14)

    a(iii) skilled, because it required, or enabled the principal applicant to gain specialist, technical or management skills and experience relevant to an occupation that is included in the lists of occupations held at Appendix 6 or Appendix 7.
    (Note: Since my working experience matches with the occupation (262113 Systems Administrator) of the Appendix 6)

    b. Work experience must also have been gained in a labour market that is comparable to the New Zealand labour market unless:
    (i) the work experience meets the requirements set out at SM13.20 for work experience in an area of absolute skills shortage
    (Note: Since my working experience meets the requirement of LTSSL in Appendix 4 of SM13.20)

    Now, if my working experience satisfy under a(ii) or a(iii) and b(i), would NZ immigration authority award me points for working experience earned in a local reputed company of Bangladesh or they will ask me working experience under multinational company of a country which is listed or it's Headquarter is listed in Comparable Labour Market, in spite of having a(ii) or a(iii) and b(i)?

    I would be grateful to you if you please give your valuable opinion.

    Thanks and regards

    Hi Shooterspalace,

    I have no direct experience with this, but from my review of the operations manual it does seem like your work experience meets the criteria in SM13.20 to be awarded points.

    Maybe someone who has been in this situation can chime in, otherwise you may have to wait until your EOI is selected and deemed to be successful to know for sure.

    Hi,

    I do not have a very good news for you.

    My Cousin had a similar experience. He was working with Infosys which is a MNC but headquartered in India. They did not count his work experience and his EOI was rejected on this basis. He had only 2 Years of work experience though.

    As your work experience is more they may give it some weigh but not 100%.

    1. Has all your work experience in the same company ?
    2. If your client for whom you worked in a different co e.g. Client is US based while you work for a company HQ in Bangladesh, in such a case you can try and explain it to the case officer.

    I would say there is no harm in trying, INZ treats every EOI on a case by case basis. But yes the comparable market rule is very much applied.

    Thanks Azkateaz for your opinion.
    I also agree with you on "SM13.20 Work experience in an area of absolute skills shortage"

    Yes, all of my work experience is from same company.

    My company is locally reputed in Bangladesh. They import electronics (Philips,whirlpool, samsung),consumer brands (garnier,Heinz,Lays) and life saving products (Novo Nordisk insulin) from Singapore, China, Italy, India, Denmark and they have some franchise business with KFC, PizzaHut. They also have a famous Pharmaceutical industry and Beverage industry (pepsi,7up,Mountain Dew) which has business in some countries. Apart from these, Media and publication business also running with higher popularity in my country.

    Will these above help me to get working experience points and bonus points on working experience under area of absolute skill shortage?

    Dear Seniors,

    If I try to get for a skilled job offer from NZ (I know it is very hard to get) and once achieve it, then how much total points I will have?

    Will this ensure me to be selected in EOI level and finally get the ITA?

    Then, what will be the visa type - Work Permit or PR visa ?


    ( Note: I mentioned current details points in the earlier post)

    I haven't gone into the matter of your other points, but if you get the offer of a skilled job, it's worth 50 more. http://www.immigration.govt.nz/NR/rd...02July2011.pdf

    If you apply under Skilled Migrant, the EOI is selected with some of your points being due to a skilled job offer, and your ITA is then successfully processed, you will have Residence.

    Under Skilled Migrant, the only possible outcomes are 1) Residence, 2) a Job Search visa (nine months in NZ to find a skilled job, at the end of which you have to leave if unsuccessful, or, if successful, you get Residence), or 3) rejection.
