Availability of Accounting Jobs?

[MillieMc]

Hey all,
I am an ACCA certification holder. ACCA is a chartered accountancy body from the UK. I would like to know the job possibilities for a chartered accountant having 15 years' experience in different countries. I have enough points to migrate as a skilled worker. I have read from many articles and blogs that experts like doctors and engineers are forced to take up jobs in restaurants and groceries when they land in Canada. This may be due to their qualification is not valid in Canada. But ACCA is valid and can sign audit reports. Does this make any difference and help me to get a good job? I heard that a professional accounting job recruiter in Canada help to resolve the issue. I dont want to work as a cashier or steward in restaurants. Please, suggestions from anyone on this would be appreciated.

Have you worked for one of the large accounting firms? What are you wanting to get out of a move to Canada from the UK?

They are scammers. Don't use them. You'll lose your money and end up with no job.

Have you worked for one of the well known accounting firms? Where have you worked in the world? It is much more challenging to get a job that is at a more senior level unless you have some contacts, can get an transfer from your current employer, etc.
