WOW, I just briefly read this thread and my god it would really make someone feel depressed and demotivated if they took all these comments in seriously. I think the "You Need Canadian Experience" is utter balls. I did not have a single day of Canadian experience but I did not have a problem...

Well everyone's situation is different I moved here because my wife is Canadian and if we stayed 10 more years in UK London and compared it to 10 years later in Canada we for sure would have a better future in Canada. What is your reason for wanting to move? Different life? Family in Canada? Or...

Welcome to Canada. What part of Canada are you based in? Checkout Robert Ralf recruiters, IT weapons and Hays.ca as I highly recommend them for IT. Or if you want to get into software sales and base income is a flat rate $60k starting and commission is like 100k+ if you hit your monthly targets...

Hello S7, Yeah thats the base pay which they pay and after tax and everything you end up with 2,200 a month but it really is the way to get your foot in the door. Not sure if there is a similar program in Calgary but I will have a look into it for you Thanks for the + :)

I replied hope that information is useful for you :D

Glad it helped and I'm sure you will be fine with it all. Good luck :)

Yes 100% it does put weight on it. For example the new CEO for Rogers is from the UK. If his experience was not considered he would not of gained that position being his first job in Canada. Having British experience has major benefits specially working within Inner London

Jalex is right minimum wage for IT on entry level is 45k, Senior IT salary is around 80k. Your experience does carry across it depends in which country you gained that experience as mine was recognized and I went from 30k through a internship program to earning 91k in being in this country for 3...

Hello MusterMark, Ah one of my friends is also in the same situation as you as his over the age of 30. I would for sure try applying through skilled working visa and see if you can get approved that way, if not I would cold email a lot of companies basically selling yourself to them via email...

Everyone is different. Maybe its my presence and positive attitude I bring is what got me where I am. But I am a Project Manager and I have some serious deadlines at the moment and if you did not know working for the Government they are very slow in processing things. Well I work downtown so yes...

Hi Mr Hope, My NOC is level A and I'm based in Toronto Ontario working for the Federal Government. Hope this information helps

I agree with as_vendor if you and your husband both live in the same country and you both have good jobs and you don't have any family or friends in Canada then I would not recommend going their. People only making this move if their husband/wife lives in Canada or they are finding it hard in...

I agree with you both but it also shows that their clearly watching every minute of the day till 4pm. I would not say its poor time management but some people like myself like to get in a hour early and leave 30mins after because I get more work done with any distractions. And it shows that...

Well if you did not know there are organizations that employ people based on their culture because they have rules and regulations to have a mixed culture environments as their are alot of private organizations that are predominantly white. Maybe its different were I work, because I work for...

Hello Luvly3, Thanks,and welcome to Canada :) Well you will need the counterfeit part that came with your driving license from your home country and your photo driving license as well as proof of address and your passport and visa documents. You get your temporary driving license card there and...

Hello Prmurthy, Sorry to disappoint you but no you have to be a landed immigrant to apply for this program. Its a really good program because they have jobs for large oganizations such as, Scotia, Rogers,TD, IBM and government jobs. Wait till your landed then apply for it. They also have a...

I agree with you here. the color of your skin does matter in Canada, further more having color on your skin you are considered a minority in Canada and being a minority that is a bonus and you actually stand a better chance in getting a job.

I disagree with that. My current employer acknowledged my 11 years experience in the UK from my previous employer. You want to know what I said to them? I said don't I need canadian experience and the manger replied no its a cultural thing as some countries experiences like US or Australia will...

I partly agree with this comment but trust me on this. Since I've moved here I now believe Canadians are not hard workers so us immigrants moving to Canada and working the way we do get acknowledged very quickly for our hard work. And if your a peoples person who is hard working you will move up...

Thanks Vengaty :)
