We are planning to immigrate to Canada ,
then maybe we should modify our skills or even change our career to another IT field
lets talk about different IT JOBS which are in Demand in Canada


Information systems analysts and consultants
Programmers and developers
Web designers
Network Administrators
Database Analysts and Data Administrators
Software engineers and designers
Network engineers
Data Analyst
Business Intelligence analyst
Data warehouse developers

let's discuss about questions like these :


1-which one has the better job market in Canada or which city has more job vacancies for that NOC ?
2-for which one the need for learning new technologies happens more often ?
3-for which one there is an optimal age ( for which one age limit may be considered)
4-which skills are more valuable for each job and give you better chances to get a job?




I was thinking to change my career from Network administrator to BI related jobs and get some experience before moving to Canada ( BI is really in demand and high paying in US , Australia I am not sure about Canada )
because I think the best age for being a GOOD network administrator is between 27-40 ...what should I do After 40 ? how am I gonna update my knowledge with ever-changing technologies specially In network area ? that made me to think about changing my career to another area which age is an asset; experience after 40 is more valuable...

Canada PR could you please share your experiences regarding IT job market ?

These two, all the others are not.

Look up in monster.ca periodically to find answers to this.

All of them. It is more the nature of the company you are working for and the contracts they have got.

Canada is not a country where jobs discriminate based on age (specially not in IT).

Thank You +1
but since other Noc are also in FSWP 2014 I was not sure about job market .actually it does not mean while your NOC is in the list you can find a job or even get an interview !

I googled " in demand jobs in Canada" there were also Networking Jobs

actually in networking day by day there comes a new tool and we should learn it ,the market has changed completely since the day "MCSE" was a plus ..after that "CCNA" ...these are not enough anymore ...now we need VMWARE certifications .storage experiences + lots of different things
but for example a DBA does not need that much new educations ...just upgrading their knowledge to new versions of SQL (ORACLE) with its tools

and also in Networking with the same experience and skills being 30 yo Engineer is superiority compared to a 40 yo Engineer ...

Is the experience Canadian? Are the certifications/diplomas Canadian? If not they are of little use.

Look in job websites like monster.ca so you can see how is the job market.
