Working holiday visa question - plz help :)
Hello,
I am a chartered accountant and am looking to emigrate to canada to work there for a few years.
Im aware my professional is no longer on the skills list and am considering entering under a working holiday visa.
My questions are:
what are the chances of getting a job in my profession and not just unskiled work?
Is it possible to get a job under this visa and then they can sponsor you for a pr visa. I have been looking on the website and cannot find whether this is not allowable.
Just trying to asses my options!
Thanks in advance

You can do any job on a WHV, as to the chances of you finding something 'skilled', that really depends on your skillset, experience, and the location. Not much help I know, but it really does depend and nobody can tell you for sure if you'll find work straight away or not.
As to going to PR from a WHV, it's unlikely (you'll normally need a LMO/TWP to get PR) but does depend on which province you are in, as some PNP's do have stream that would allow you to go straight to PR from a WHV without needing a LMO inbetween.
HTH.
