Hi dears.

I came to Australia this year with a partner visa and already have applied for permanent residency. I have an overseas master degree in public management and over 3 years experience in an HR specialist position. Currently I want to apply for HR positions in Sydney.

Will they accept my overseas diploma and experience? Do I have a chance to get a job under employment law?

Thanks in advance

Hi Denice, it depends on what country you obtained your degree in. Some degrees are transferable to other countries however, some you would have to do further study to validate your qualifications here. In a job like HR, it may simply depend on the companies that you apply to and whether or not they feel your degrees and experience are relevant to what their job requires.
