Default Restrictions on type of work for TWP after CIS nomination

I have a CIS nomination and I'm aware that the Province (NS) can write a letter of support for me to get a TWP (on entry) if I have a job offer. Do you know if there are any restrictions on the kind of work that I can get a TWP to do? I've told the province that I'm an Architect, will they require a job offer in that profession or at that skill level, or will they still support me if I get an unskilled job offer?

P.s. The reason I ask is that my profession, Architecture, appears to be a bit slow at the moment. We want to move this summer (PR is expected in Dec) and would feel better if we knew we are able to get any kind of job rather than specifically in Architecture, so we can flagpole and get a TWP with a letter of support from NSOI.

Many thanks.

My understanding is that it has to be of similar level to your experience. Hubby had to find something in management but not 100% certain it had to be in the industry he came from...

I know...it's harder than you think...at least that's my understanding. Hubby came first and had got a job in management by the time I arrived so maybe I have misunderstood it...but check before you book a flight
