Raised a CSE few weeks ago and received the below standard response. Still officer review pending ............. since I got PER in July 2013 :( . I believe for me its gonna take much longer. Anywasy no other choice except sleeping over it and focus on other tasks.

"Thank you for your email.

Your application is currently awaiting officer review. We will contact you again as soon as we are able to, however, you should note this may not be for quite some time yet. You need take no further action at this time.

Yours sincerely,

LBM"

Good Morning All,

Through CIIP session I gathered some useful information which can be of some help to all of us, compiling the most important topic- Resume writing tips.

Don's and don'ts for Canadian style resume Writing Skills:-

1. Should not exceed more than 2 pages.
2. Should not have any personal information (Religion, Nationality) on resume.
3. Should not have photograph endorsed on resume unlike UAE where it's very common to have PP size photograph on top.
4. Do not disclose your marks in education's section unless you have A grade, better to write just Bachelors or Masters of so and so University.
5. Do not use any abbreviations or shot forms for anything.
6. Use the key words within your respective areas like Java, .Net etc. Reason being large corporates in Canada use electronic system to filter resumes from the available one's. The resume with more key words will be picked by the system.
7. Mention References are available on request at the end.
8. Divide your resume in 3 parts

9. Be serious about soft skills n formatting.

10. Try to show your presence through LinkedIn FB twitter, join some groups in Canada.

I have uploaded the sample resume with illustration how to prepare best one for yourself, here is the link.

Thanks for your help nkarla...
as of now we r scheduled for 19 june and then on 21 june at 4pm we have MAP session...difficult for abu dhabi ppl though to come 2 days...
inshaAllah will try our best...

nkalra said:
No idea for 21st June session. There is a catch CIIP session will be of one full day, but that is not that informative in terms of job counseling.
The next day MAP session is the one I was mainly focused for. Many people do mistake by not attending the MAP just go for CIIP. So TC.

Hello all,
looking at the spreadsheet I noticed that on my line it says I got the visa on May 29th but actually this was the date I received my PPR. I will be sending my passports tomorrow so hopefully in no more than 3 weeks I will have the visa with me.
Admin, could you please change this information??

Thank you. :)
