Hi
I'm Sagar, Having 7+years of experience in Piping Stress Analysis. I am planning to apply Canada PR (FSW)under express entry for year 2015. How about job opportunities in Canada. I saw most of the jobs require Registered as a professional Engineer with APEGA. But we are Indians we won't get that registration until we go and write exams. Without this registration are we able to get jobs? I am about apply for PR, your guidance ll help me to proceed further. Please do the needful. Thank you very much.
Regards
Sagar
Hi Sagar,
Firstly, all the best for your applications as you would surely need it for the new type of application through EXPRESS ENTRY or which can be also called as SUBMISSION OF EXPRESSION OF INTEREST.
I am at present in Calgary and landed here on 25th Nov 2014.
Yet to get a job.
However, it is not because of not having PEng, it's because of the present crude prices. The job market is really bad but rest assured it won't be the same always and it will see daylight pretty soon.
U can get jobs without PEng but this won't be a free hand engineering job. U need to work under a professional engineer and then u would be able to get a job or you can work as a construction supervisor where u don't need PEng license.
There are many options open.
Be ready to take up any job, there is nothing small Or big here.
Check online and update ur resume as per Canadian format - Simple way.
Get the details from ur university, required for applying for PEng, before u reach Canada - Trust me, it will help.
Don't assume u will get a job immediately once u lands here... There r lots of jobs, but remember, there r lots of candidates as well.
Hope I have replied to ur query properly.
All the best buddy.
Keep Smiling
Binu Abraham
