Thanks , I am in the USA . Extremely tough to find job from India as far I read in thread for various reasons . I would suggest keep looking out for niche area jobs in all provinces . Complete any certification if at all possible during this job hunting time . Toronto has lots of jobs too . Try to get in touch with friends in Canada . They will help you in all the surprising ways .

Lucky you!
Congratulation.
For me 13 weeks waiting time within Tech Pilot and score of 124 inlander. No news from them.
Maybe the EE BC PNP Skilled Workers takes longer than the SI?
Maybe it is everything just unfair?

Hi Siem. We got it in extremis. We were almost thinking of leaving Canada for good and then they invited us.
We received it on Monday 30th of April.
My application was on 18th of January and so 3 months and half overall process time.
after that we went at the border with the work permit support letter and received a 2 years work permit: mine closed for my employer, my girlfriend an open one. On Wednesday 16th we received the invitation for the PR and we accepted it. Medical and police certificates done and we would like to subit everything by mid June. As soon as you are in vancouver text me...

I am in BC and got couples of job offer. One is permanent and others are contract positions. Not able to verify - for Tech Pilot program, do I need to be in permanent job role? FYI - my job role fall under 2281. I need to take decision ASAP

Your answer with supporting link will be more appreciable.

It should be full time, permanent or with no set end date.

2281 is qualified under Tech Pilot. You can see it in the below link

Hi,
I like to apply for BC PNP tech pilot. I am a bit confused about it. Is there a separate link for this program than the one you currently use to register for BC PNP? Or do they automatically consider you for the tech pilot once you register? Someone on the forum also posted a list of requirements for tech pilot, and English test was not one of them? Is there no English test requirement for tech pilot? I may digress a bit here, but there are certain numbers the application asks for, but I guess they will be given to you after wards once they accept your registration !?

Hi Mpak, I assume you mean an employer for a tech job role right?
I would say that the demand for tech employees is really high: there are a lot of IT related job opportunities in BC.
However, receiving a job offer is something that depends from many factors, such as previous work experience, current work permit status...
To me, the most important activity as soon as I landed in Vancouver, was connecting with people in the Tech environment in order to meet potential employers and interesting companies. I had been contacted by many recruiters as well but most of them were working in behalf of customers/companies not keen on sponsorship. This is the reason why, while looking for the right job, I had to evaluate the employer first of all and not the salary; I wanted to be sure to find a reliable employer who could have sponsored me for the future work permit.
Hope my answer could help you.

Hi, Would you be able to give some links or heads up for employers in Vancouver. I am in Vancouver now, but I am not making adequate contacts with tech companies. Have posted on indeed.com, but have had no contacts.
