I am a 23 year old student and I just finished my graduation in French language. I want to move to Canada and I understand it's a very complicated process and without work experience, I have no chance. I decided to study human resources which will be completed in 2-3 years. I will be investing a lot of money so I wanted to know if I will be able to secure a job after completing my studies there and apply for permanent residence. I know that it's easier for Engineers to secure a job after their studies but I wanna know if it's the same for students pursuing HR. I am fluent in French and English. I wanna know my chances because I don't want to invest a lot of money and then return to India. I will take loan from a bank and it will be easier for me to pay the loan if I work in Canada because 1CAD-54 INR but if i came back to India after studying from Canada, it will take me years to pay it. Thanks for your understanding.

No direct experience, but I would guess its not that great.
Foreigner with no experience in a HR position is going to be tough.

Being bilingual will help but many of the good HR positions require a commerce or business administration university degree. Also not sure if you can get a government job as a PGWP. Being bilingual usually is good for working for government agencies. Really hard to give advice. Everyone person is different and finding a job as a new grad is hard for even Canadian students.

Lots of nursing jobs available.
Thanks a lot for your reply! :)I was thinking of doing BSc in Nursing but for since I did not have science in high school, I cannot do it. I am very much interested in it but there are ways to study it even if I didn't had science in high school. You said a lot of nursing jobs are available. Can you tell me that if an international student will have a hard time securing a job after his studies in the field of nursing compared to native Canadians?
