Hi everyone,

Newbie here. I'm currently in the Express Entry pool and looking for a job, but I don't live in Canada. Has anyone here successfully landed a job offer for Express Entry from your home country? I know it's an uphill battle, but it would be great if you can share tips on how your were able to find employment. :)

Thanks!

Maybe you'll find a couple of cases here in the forum, but I wouldn't count on getting one, if I were you. I would rather spend my time and money trying to increase my score to 450+ by getting better grades at the language test, investing in education and foreign work experience.

I've tried getting a job for quite a while from outside Canada. Sent tons of applications and never got any response (apart from automated rejections).
