Can i get a Job before applying for FSW

[slax]

Hi

I have been preparing to apply for FSW (Currently WES evaulation is happening; appearing for IELTS on 16th August) and will be applying within 30/40 days.

Also, right now preparing my resume in canadian format.

I wanted to know if i can get job (before i apply FSW) by applying on canandian job websites.

What are the chances for me to get a job or interview?

My Profile: System Analyst
Experience: 11 years.

Kindly help with some inputs

You can certainly try. The chances of success are very low because the vast majority of employers don't want to pay the fee ($1K) and deal with the processing times (1 month of advertising to prove a Canadian couldn't be hired for the role plus 6-20 weeks of processing time) for the application to hire a foreign worker. But you can certainly try.

Almost impossible...

I agree with Scylla. IMO, employers will not be willing to go through the cumbersome process of sponsoring a foreign worker when that person has not yet landed in Canada. Anyway, it doesn't hurt to try but the chances of success is extremely low.
