Urgent please!!!

Hi, I'm asking on behalf of a friend in India. He is getting an LMIA-supported work permit for a machinist position in Brampton, classified as a high-wage LMIA. He has a few questions. Can someone please explain how the draws for machinists have been since last year? He has a B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering, completed in 2018, and after gaining one year of work experience in Canada, his CRS score is estimated to be around 342, assuming an IELTS score between 5.5 and 6. Will he be able to apply through the OINP, or would he be eligible for any other immigration streams?

He also wants to know whether the work permit will be closed or open. If it's a closed work permit, what are the limitations? Will he be allowed to work for employers other than his main employer?
