Hello,
I am new to the forum. I have considered moving to Canada the last few years but only now I feel ready to try to achieve my dream...
I have two bachelor's degrees: one in media technology (project manager) and one in environmental science.
In a few months I have finished my master's thesis in leadership.
I have made the skilled worker test and got enough points to qualify.
HOWEVER. I am wondering, how easy (or should I say difficult) is it to get a job offer when not in Canada?
Because I do not have the $$$ in my bank they require if you do not have a job offer. Now considering the IELTS test... But is it to throw the money into the lake when I don't have the funding available if I do not have a job offer? Is it easy to get a job offer?
I would appreciate any advice.
Please no bashing. Or rude comments.

Thanks in advance.

It's next to impossible to get a job offer - you should assume it won't happen. I would focus on saving the funds you need to qualify before you take IELTS.

EDIT: Next to impossible to get a job offer because the vast majority of employers won't go through the LMIA process (it's expensive, takes a great deal of paperwork, long, and with no guarantee of approval).
