If you are really determined to work here, yes it is necessary to learn French. Not only for the interview but also for your future work. Now that I am here (Quebec), dito ko lang naintindihan na kailangan mo talaga magaral ng French if you want to get good paying jobs. In the first place if you are going to apply as a nurse, you will not be fully licensed if you don't pass the OQLF exam (Office quebecois de la langue francaise). Mas maraming job opportunities sa bilingual kesa sa english lang ang alam.
