Change employers if I have an International Experience Canada work permit (Young Professionals category)

[daniel4111]

Hi there,

I have a Young Professionals closed work permit that expires in March 2022, but I have lost my job due to COVID-19.
Fortunately I have a new employer that wants to hire me immediately.

The job is in the same role, same NOC Code, meets all the requirements etc.

Can anyone please advise on how I can change employers and begin working again?


Thanks !!

Check the condition of your work permit.
