If you are 6411/6421 they are not skilled in NOC A, B or O and are not on the "list" so without an approved permanent job offer from a Canadian company, you won't qualify.

Read this link and there is a FAQ section
Travel and Work in Canada | Temporary Work Visa For Work Holidays in Canada for Students and Youth | International Experience Canada

The programme might open Dec 2014 onwards until approx 5350 places are full and competition is fierce i.e. spots full in minutes rather than days.

We are happy to help, but you do need to help yourself too. A quick Google will tell you all about the IEC.

So have another look at the Wiki, read more threads, research, and then plan a job hunting trip to Canada as it seems you'd need a job offer to qualify for any visa from what you've said, unless you do qualify for the IEC.

Good luck.

We know its not for the price of auto insurance or cheese. Are they coming for the weather mmm minus 40C temps or snow on the ground for several months.
Definitely not coming for cheap airfares within Canada although we are nearer to Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic for that 1 week all inclusive vacation in Jan, Feb or March.
Culture and history and architecture nope none of that here.
So one wonders why are all these expats here or wanting to come as it beats me.

how about awesome outdoors lifestyle and skiing? :)

there's a work shortage for teachers here, one of my friends went to school to be a teacher and spent a very long time looking for work, eventually picking up contract jobs teaching English in Korea.
