Horsefeathers....perhaps you haven't read the FAQ. Can't speak for the other mods specifically but we have consistently stated that we are on the forum on a voluntary basis.JhonnyECU wrote: Especially, if you consider the fact that being new to this forum (i discovered 2 days ago)with ALL this time pressure over my shoulders (less thatn 24 days to appeal) has not been easy.

The caseworker will know nothing about your field and probably nothing about your country or your industry awards. It's up to you to make your case. You have to provide evidence, documentation and an explanation to the caseworker of what it all means, if you expect to get points awarded.JhonnyECU wrote:Hi Lynn and all!
HOW can i make my application "self-explanatory" without writing ALL the possible guides and important details on EACH section for teh caseworker to "SEE" what i am trying to explain with the "employment reference letters" or "national recognition of an artistic achievement letters"???
No. There have always been people who broke into these fields without any formal education at all. How is a caseworker to know how your industry works? The best way to handle all of this, is to either write the letters for the employer, making sure it has everything that HSMP is asking for and have the employer review it, print it out on their letterhead and have them sign it -- or if you don't feel comfortable asking them to do that, you have to explicitly state EXACTLY what needs to be in the letter. Provide the employer with a bulleted list and ask them to be sure that they have all of that information clearly stated in the letter. Make sure that they use the word "graduate" in the letter.HOW can i state explicitly that my position required a degree? does it count to be ecuadorian and work in one of most competitives countries in the world, like germany, in an area which is highly especialized as TV or Film and speak german??
Provide letters that state what you did, that it requires a certain level of education -- and then explain all of this to the caseworker. What we did when putting together my husband's application, was to put a cover sheet with every single section -- explaining what was included in that section, and explaining why it was included and anything in particular out of the ordinary that we thought needed more explanation. Do something similar. If you need extra letters explaining how the industry works and what your qualifications and achievements are, get them.my experience certificates dont emphazise that much wheter the "level" was graduate or not...they focus on RESULTS, on amount of shows produced...
contrary to many fields, working in tv or film can be a VERY exhausting experience since you have to be doing 2 or even 3 jobs simultaneously...
how can i prove that??
It can't hurt. If you can show job descriptions that are equivalent to postions you've held and the jobs all require univ educations, then that could only be helpful to your case.i have considered the idea of printing some web links of job ads in which you can clearly see WHAT kind of "education and experience" one actually needs to get into one of this productions. what do you think about that?
That's important for showing that you will be employable if you're approved.thanks for the idea of making the HO realize of the "demand in my field". well, media wise England is very strong and from all the jobsearch engines JUST for this field, i can tell you that it is BOOMING!!

Whether right or wrong, it's a policy fact, and we can't help but suggest that you follow the rules in this case. If you strongly believe the new docs equip your package better, please re-apply.
All the best.
My opinion always is that anything additional helps, even though it may be of secondary importance.JhonnyECU wrote: would it help to my reference of employment letter the fact that i ADD some www print out of the most important organizations in tv in the UK which state the fact that the requirements for the positions i have held during these last 5 years, have been of graduate level?
