Desperate to tell someone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well folks its been about 4 months since I started the quest to find a company in Canada that would be interested in employing a UK citizen. After sending about 500 Emails (and not getting many replies) I've finally got 8 interview lined up with company's that seem really interested in me and helping with the LMO and the TWP. I fly out on Saturday 12th Jan and have 2 interviews every day!! Im sure I'll be knackered by the end of the week but hopefully it will be worth it.
Feel's really good to finally spill the beans about why Im really going to Canada as far as all are family and friends a concerned it another holiday. Me and the wife decided not to share are plans with anyone until we know for sure the big move is going to happen, so its been 4 months of avoiding the questions like "what you got planed while your in Canada".
Can wait to get there now, got my fingers and toes crossed!!!!!!!
thats better, feel's like there's a little weight lifted of my shoulders!!!!

City4,
You have put a load of effort into this, I am sure it will pay off.
A little determination goes a long way and you've got BAGS!!
Best of luck though not needed, I know you've already doen your research

Oh many congratulations for the perseverance and best wishes for the job interviews.
Yes you will be knackered but how much do you want to bet that you'll be posting a thread entitled "Which one do I choose" about a week after you return and at least half have offered you positions!!!!

Congratulations!
Well done you and well done for keeping quiet about it. My family have always been supportive of my move and know that I am doing it no matter what.
Good luck on your trip!

Eight interviews? Good grief!
Don't forget you only need one job so that is pretty good odds... good luck!
