To all who have landed in Canada safely and got the jobs...
I thought of starting this post to get views from the seniors who have already secured the jobs in their desired professions (thought the %ages may be few but still) which could assist the people who are planning to land soon or have recently landed.
Please share your most constructive tips so that we can find the jobs early. I have come across many administrative assistant / clerical jobs on many websites wherein the common requirement is
1. Canadian Education 2. Canadian Experience - We do know and understand this.
My question is what to do if you are OVER-QUALIFIED ? i.e. They require a Post Secondary Diploma or Certificate, Proficiency in Ms-Office and a year or two OFFICE EXPERIENCE. Most of us coming to this country would have computer know-how and at least a Bachelor // Master degree ?
Should we hide our Master Degree when applying ? How can one make the prospective employer feel that one's office experience was as good as it is required...
I would be very happy, if all of us can discuss and share our ideas which are quite practical to be at least considered for an interview ...!!!
I am sure this will help all the readers, if enough inputs are given to this Post.
