Answer 1

It is not that simple. Australia uses the point system. For best information, go to: http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/880/index.htm

Normally, you have to do at least 2 years full time study in australia to qualify, and there are age requirements, plus the type of skill that you have, which depends on the kind of master qualification you get.
For example, if you are into engineering, you get 60 points. If you are under 29 years old, you get extra 30 points (I think). If you have good English language ability, you get extra 20 points. Then if you have done Australian education course, for at least 2 years, you get extra 5 points. This will give you 115 points. You need 120 point, so, you need extra 5 bonus points, which can be working experience, other language ability, or investment option.
Some occupation only give you 50 points, so, it iwll be hard. If you are over 29 (or maybe 28, not sure), you will get less points for age, etc etc.

Better check the website and see whether you qualify. The Australian immigration is getting tighter and tighter, it won't be as easy as, say, 5 or 10 years before.

PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN WITH THE AUSTRALIAN IMMIGRATION WEBSITE www.immi.gov.au. Australian immigration rules normally get updated twice a year or more, so, double check!

Answer 2

Not necessarily. It depends more on the field. Getting a bachelor's degree is enough to qualify.

If I had the choice between giving PR to a plumber or somebody with a doctorate in sociology, guess who will get in.
