Good Morning!!

Below are my points breakdown:

Age :10 Education: 20 Work Experience: 20 Language: 16 Adaptability: 10 Total: 76

Will the immigration officer still consider my application if I only grant 76 pts?
How can someone who is not living in Canada get a job offer from a Canadian employer?
Is there any channels that we can seek job opportunites? From my experience, most
employers would not take non-Canadian.

It is possible to get job offers even though you are a non-Canadian. You will have to
apply for the right job at the right time..and most importantly there should be a
demand for people like you in Canada. As for myself, I received my job offer in
November last year, and am planning to land in February. I'm a health economist, and
clearly there is acute shortage of health economists in Canada.

The best bet would be to state in your application that you have either received your
landing papers or that you are expecting one soon. Employers consider foreign
applications where there's a good chance that the person will make it through.

Kind regards.

Hi Tiffany,

Canada has always had and will continue to have an acute shortage of skilled
professionals. If you come under a demand occupation category, most employers would
be happy to undertake the paper-work for arranged employment.

If you work in the IT field you don't even need to do this, a mere offer letter (in
the right format) will suffice. Do not worry arranged employment is not all that hard
to get in Canada. My partner got hers within 15 weeks.

Where I work, there are literally empty cubicles because my employer is simply unable
to find people to fill the jobs. There are an estimated 400,000 jobs going unfilled
(in IT alone) all over Canada.

Bottom line: If you apply at the right time at the right place, arranged employment
may be easier to get than you think.

-D.C.

Re: new rules.
 
I was very interested to read your print about there being lots of job out there
in Canada.

And especially in the IT industry which as far as i know world wide has taken a bit
of a battering esp after Sept 11 attack..

I would really like to know in which areas of Canada, there are these shortages and
also if you employer is looking for any Cisco Engineers at the moment. if so then
please let me know as i would be very much interested.

thank you sir

Re: new rules.
 
Well, I'm afraid I have to agree with Tiffany. I am an IT project manager with over
20 years business experience (I'm 42) and have been trying my damnedest to get an
'arranged employment offer' for over a year now and NOBODY but NOBODY is willing to
hire a non-Canadian (or PR). Reasons? 1. They want to hire me for sure, but they just
don't want the hassle, the cost, the long delay or the mountains of paperwork
involved in bringing in a foreigner. I didn't think the process was all that bad but
it seems I'm wrong. 2. They are also skeptical about visa workers leaving after they
have paid good money to bring the person in and don't want to take the risk.

To add insult to injury I don't have this mythical Canadian experience that everyone
*demands*. I am fed up of being told how good my resume and experience is. It means
nothing if they are willing to settle for second best just because of red tape.

I have no intention of giving up trying. Maybe one day I will find a 'real' company
that is not short-sighted and is willing to put its money where its mouth is. In
the meantime I am considering applying as a self-employed immigrant but that's
another story.

For everyone else who is trying then I wish you good luck also!
