The first step is to get in the pool to be considered for Ontario yes but..

You will also need 1 year minimum work experience in NOC 00, A or B which must of been in the last 5 years

Demonstrate you hold the minimum funds for you and any dependent family members

Intent to reside in Ontario

Have a bachelors degree Canadian equivalencey minimum..

Have proof of employent for all jobs in the past 10 years such as work contracts, pay stubs and most importantly reference letters

If you have all this you can be considered for Ontarios Nominee program but you Must retain a score of 400+ crs before and throughout the process. Also you need to get a letter of interest from Ontario before you apply.. You can't get this till your in the pool. If and when you get the letter of interest (invitation to apply to Ontario) depends highly on certain criteria Ontario sets such as experience, age and NOC code

The OINP targeted candidates in the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector with work experience in the following NOC codes:

NOC 0131: Telecommunication Carriers Managers

They WERE giving out letters of interest to candidates with below 400 CRS but to certain NOC codes which someone posted a list of here already but there is speculation that was one week only thing.. Not to say they won't do that again and maybe add other in demand NOC codes if yours isn't on that list. Good luck
