sharing a friend's experience about economy and job market stuff in toronto. He generally sounded quiet positive about job market conditions.
He said those in regulated professions will have to get local qualifications. For example, CA or ACCA will find that their qualifications don't hold much value there.He had an ACCA, and he had that struggle to start with.
In general, what he meant is that those relaying on educational qualifications need to get local equivalent to get the job they deserve.
Those with non regulated skills such as IT, wouldn't find that qualification barrier. He said there are lots of jobs in Canada in IT. His wife, a recent immigrant found job quiet fast.
Overall, there are lots of opportunities in Canada for the people with right skills!
I thought it'd be good to share this with people on this forum and to encourage them to feel confident about finding job soon after landing. Especially, lots of people have gotten or are about to get their visa at this stage!
