Can I count voluntary employment to meet the work experience criterion?
A. No as work experience must be at the skilled level for a total of at least one out of the last two years. Some occupations may require work experience in the nominated occupation (check this website). Only employment that is paid and at the appropriate level (that is after all qualifications have been achieved and recognised in your skills assessment to be to the skilled level) will be recognised towards meeting the work experience criterion.
