Reposting.

Hi,

Need help urgently. I applied under NOC 2173 and my application reached on 30th sep. I know it's not going to be considered so I am planning to send a fresh application for NOC 2172 by next week.
Need sample reference letter. I have worked as a database analyst (not literally title wise but duties wise) for more than 2 years. Haven't worked as a database administrator though. Please advise if it's fine and also please inbox me few sample reference letters (if any successful candidates can provide the same whose CC has been charged).

Please help. Also do I stand a chance if I submit my application under 2172 by next week?

I think that basically they are closing down federal economic immigration stream with this EE system. I cannot imagine a Canadian employer hiring a foreigner and enduring 6 months wait time until he lands. Occasionally they will pick someone, but the intake will shrink to hundreds. Consequently, PNP streams and QSFW will be overwhelmed soon.

I agree. It seems that provincial nomination and arranged employment accounts for half of total points. So if you don't have either of these or canadian work experience, it will be almost impossible to qualify.

I agree. Although most provinces are also considering to change their system to EE soon. I am seeing PNP will be flocked in the first few months of 2015.

I don't see a reason for going the extra mile as well. Passing the Australian eligibility score mark is fairly easy. So if anyone approached me for advice I would recommend to apply there or obtain a Canadian degree and apply on that basis (PNP graduate nomination, post graduation work permit, CEC).
