Manchester is extremely well renowned in the UK so I would certainly assume that companies in Australia will know exactly how credible your degree will be, even if it is after a little research.

I wouldn't worry.

I think it's Australia where you have a 'points' system and they only let you move there if you are skilled.

So gotta ask them really :p:

It's actually easier to emigrate to Australia if you're a hairdresser :wink:

Not a word of a lie, either, my family tried to move there but they wouldn't let us. Their immigration controls are really strict :O But they have a shortage of hairdressers and four other occupations that I can't remember. I think one was nurse.
