Yes, the IEC Young Professionals should be employer-specific as far as I know! But I will double check that. Thanks for your answers DelPiero07! I just started to get confused because people said it's not possible to reach the 50 extra points through the IEC young professionals program. But I'm...

Yes I also saw that list. But I read somewhere that IEC Young Professionals would also be included because it is an employer-specific work permit. I will do some more research. But yes, you could be right. But if I could just work for one year in Canada that would already be amazing for me...

But was yours a IEC working holiday visa? Because working holiday visas are open work permit. And IEC Young Professionals would be employer specific.

Thanks Broken Heart for your answer. Really appreciate it. Regarding extra points please see my previous post just before. With the recent changes you can obtain points for employer specific LMIA-exempt work permit after one year. Regarding getting a job from abroad in order to participate...
