Aah, thanks for response. My question is that if I get a contract job will it affect my ITA in any way negative? I understand it will not give me 600 points. Why would it? In the past, there has been a lot speculation over contract jobs and since i've spent 1 year doing a full-time...

I just completed a year of working in a 2171 NOC code position and applied for express entry and have a score of 444. I will get my ECA done (in process) and update my profile so hoping to get a 464 score. I am getting interviews for good positions but they are contract and I was hesitating to...

That means nothing. The CIC can twist and turn words and say whatever it has to and it still doesn't have to answer to questions such as the original question asked.

At my current workplace I don't see any such racism. My manager (white) actively promotes and gives good reviews to people who work hard. But about companies not calling you cuz of south asian sounding name could easily be true. I've applied to all companies when I was looking for a job. I've...

Now what I am saying is by personal experience only. Racism in Canada is very subtle and varied. You will never see any person call you out or yell a racial slur at you. You are never ever stereotyped. Canadians don't do that in general. They might think it, but aren't raised to say that...

A friend's friend went and he said that Chris Alexander stated that right now they are waiting for all the previous year's LMIA candidates and then when that is exhausted at a later date people below 600 will get picked. Now this is second hand information; did anyone in the GTA go to that? Just...

I'd take Large French Vanilla and 10 Chocolate Glazed tidbits over that question any day.

As a high frequency developer? yes easily. lol 100k? try 200k+ = Another thing to note. It's not Canadian experience these people are looking for but first world experience. Its generally the language skills people are looking at. That is all. If you are from the motherland then I don't think...

Re: Fifth & Sixth Draw. Expecting 320+ will get ITA LMIA is a very small number 5000 at best. The number of people between 735 and 600 isn't going to be a lot. Just not how it works. That being said 320 score is too low. I am not sure if that score is ever gonna get picked. Anyone below 300...

Re: Fifth & Sixth Draw - March. Expecting 320+ will get ITA What influx? Where is this influx suddenly coming from? Why didn't they apply yet? Don't make uninformed claims like that.

Re: Fifth & Sixth Draw - March. Expecting 320+ will get ITA What do you think is going to happen when the Job Bank is operational? People can still apply to jobs using the job bank. No employer pays attention to anyone outside of Canada.

This thread is hilarious.

Do not claim that his story is false. Nothing is worse than people not beliving you when you are at your lowest. That is one person's troubles and if you can't understand that then stop claiming it is false. That being said it is ONE person's issue. Immigrants do have an issue when it comes to...

Thats the only good scenario in Toronto. lol

I kind of agree that immigrants tend to have issues with finding a job, but then again what white collar job do you want? What is your qualification? Toronto is competitive yes, but not so competitive too.

I would suggest going for a 2 year degree solely because of the fact that you get a longer work permit. With the uncertainty express entry brings it is always good to have more time on hand.

I made that point in the first week of December. It's beating a dead horse. PGWP works aren't going to get shafted. Canadian economists and immigration experts are experts for a reason. They might be doing a lousy job most of the time but they aren't complete idiots. The way EE is designed is...

Exactly, you have lived in countries that are far more advanced to Canada (your words). Now imagine how we feel about Canada. I come from India. I will give you an example. Had I graduated from a school in India and worked as an entry level tech guy there, on my salary I would have had to share...

Is there are any clarification of having two jobs in the same year for CEC award the 40 points? Even if its the same NOC code?

Negative propaganda is a good strategy for reducing competition. Canada has 3 cities on the top 10 cities list. Alberta might be in a rut but it is temporary. Oil is a finite resource and we aren't going 100% green anytime soon. It is going to go back up. And students who work odd jobs are...
