working in Canada

[Walidaun]

Hi everyone,

I am just wondering what are the chances I get a job Canada ?
I am a non-Canadian citizen petroleum engineer with an MSc form the US. in petroleum engineering and two years of industry experience with a major oil service company but outside of Canada. Will be staying in Canada under a study permit for my PhD (I've been already admitted but have not started my studies )

Thank yous

If Albertan oil does not run out before you finish your PhD,
and if you will be ready to tolerate extreme North weather,
and if you find a company that will not be scared by your PhD (which tends to be viewed as overqualification - myself I have a PhD too)
then you have a sensible chance of getting a job in your field.

Hi seniors,
How much the NOC code does important for getting job after arrival to Canada as a FSW for employers?
I mean we have to seek for a job which is relevant to our NOC code or we can do another job?
Does any employer really care about that?
Cheers,

Your study permit states you can't work in Canada.
