一些EE毕业生的签证

刚看了一下最新的shortage occupation list,
跟理工科相关的挺多的,就是engineer为例,或者比较热门的double E(Electric Engineering)
如:2126 Design and development engineers
design engineer in the electricity transmission and distribution industry
the following jobs in the electronics system industry:

  • integrated circuit design engineer
  • integrated circuit test engineer
    而且要求工资也不算特别高,24k

这些毕业生还是挺难转到T2(G)的,
但是这些工作是在shortage list里面的,只要雇主愿意,就可以办工签,不需要通过resident labour test的
这些毕业生没能转成工签,主要还是因为工作技能,或英语的原因多一些,而不是纯粹的签证限制。大家同意吗?

相反地,IT programmer倒不在list里面,
但可以得到工签的也不少,

以下是得到工签的要求:
You can score 30 points for having a Tier 2 (General) certificate of sponsorship from a licensed sponsor. When assigning your certificate, your sponsor will indicate whether they are assigning it because:

the job has an annual salary of £150,000 or more; or
the job is on the shortage occupation list; or
you are moving into Post-study work; or
your sponsor has completed a resident labour market test (or an exemption applies); orif you are already here under Tier 2 (General) and you are applying extend your stay, you will working for the same sponsor in the same job.
