What people nominating Sheetmetal Trades Worker are scoring

Skill level is worked out from the ANZSCO code
Sheetmetal Trades Worker is ANZSCO skill level 3. On the Victorian Points Test, only skill level 1 occupations score points for this factor — 50 of them. Levels 2 and 3 score zero. That means this occupation scores 0 here, and tops out 50 points below a skill level 1 occupation.
What you are ranked against
Victoria ranks Registrations of Interest in two ways at once: across the whole pool, and within each priority industry. Sheetmetal Trades Worker sits in the Construction Trades subgroup of Victoria’s Construction priority industry, so you are competing against others in that group as well as against everyone else.
The highest total this occupation can reach
The Victorian Points Test is scored out of 950. For Sheetmetal Trades Worker the ceiling is 900.
There is a second ceiling worth knowing about: the earnings factor counts only current skilled employment in Victoria, and it is worth up to 150 points. If you are applying from outside Victoria, or are not in skilled work here, your realistic maximum is 750.
There is no pass mark
Victoria does not publish a score you need to reach. It ranks every Registration of Interest from highest to lowest and invites from the top down in each round, so the only thing that matters is how your total compares with everyone else nominating Sheetmetal Trades Worker. You also need at least 65 points on the separate federal SkillSelect test.
