Ok - we are so close to being able to get our ITA off now... However, I've got a query that you lovely folks might be able to help with :D

We are claiming points for my work experience being on the Long Term Skills Shortage List - I'm going for ICT Account Manager, as this fits my job description almost perfectly. However, my job title is Sales Administration Manager - I actually do a lot more than the ANZCO description of an Account Manager, but not everything that is on the general ICT Sales Professionals description:
http://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/ABS@.NSF/Product+Lookup/1220.0~2006~Chapter~UNIT+GROUP+2252+ICT+Sales+Prof essionals

I'm going to be putting in my original contract (which was just for Sales Administrator, as there was not a team for me to be the manager for when I joined!), an updated job description (as the JD was extended when I got promoted), which will be signed by our HR Manager, and a reference on company headed paper.

However - what additional information should be on the reference? Our usual company references just state the job title, dates worked and salary, but I expect that INZ will want more info! Fortunately, I have a good relationship with the HR manager, so she is not going to have a problem with extending the reference :nice1

Any other suggestions for extra information that INZ would like to see?

Many thanks in advance,
Jo

Hi there,

I just had letters written by my current and previous employers detailing how long I was each place, how I was paid (salary-exempt), how many hours I worked per week. Also, the work I did and why. I wanted the letters detailed as much as possible so there is no question or misunderstandings. Both letters were printed in the company letter head with their signatures and contact info at the end of each letter.

Hope this helps. :nice1

If needed, I do have old tax forms and pay stubs.
