Did you work for a multinational as a senior business analyst/business manager or was that for the government? Have you kept up your IT skills?

Thanks for the reply.
I worked with TCS, Cognizant and an Indian consultancy firm before I moved to government sector.
I have kept up with the basics, did some analytical work while my stint with tax department and I am planning to get a couple of certifications before applying for jobs in Canada.

So you have some experience in well known employers globally. Would personally work your contacts through your previous employer. That would be your best option for finding a job in Canada. IT skills are in very high demand so if you can update your IT skills that would also be something that would benefit you.

I would ask you to do focused job search & from what I see, you should be looking into as a BSA/BA. This will help you get traction because of your past experience in technical skills. Make your resume impressive with your achievements and there you go.
