Skill Select

Skill Select is one of the key assessment systems used by countries like Australia to evaluate skilled migration applications. Here’s a plain-language walkthrough of how it works, and how Rabbit Tortoise can help you prepare a competitive profile.

Skill Select is an online selection system in Australia for immigration, similar to  the Canadian Express Entry and New Zealand Skilled Migrant, that ranks applicants based on their total points.

Points are based on factors like your age, marital status, education and skilled work experience. Once you meet the required number of points, you can then start your application under Skill Select.

To be selected under SkillSelect, you’ll need to meet the required number of points for the following factors:

• Skills
• Age
• Marital Status
• English language proficiency
• Occupation
• Australian work experience or Australian qualifications

There are also different streams under Skill Select that you can apply for. There is a stream for applicants who are nominated by a state or territory government agency. There is also a stream where you can be sponsored by an eligible relative Or, you can opt to migrate independently.
