How to get a job in Canada easily and successfully?

One of the great tips to get a job in Canada for Filipinos via direct hiring is to choose the jobs classified under the skilled and low-skilled jobs. Why? Because these jobs are usually hiring and have the most available vacancies. Canada hires foreign workers if and only if they find no citizens in Canada to fill those jobs.

If you heard of LMO (Labor Market Opinion) now, LMIA, – that’s one of the requirements before an employer can hire foreign workers there. No wonder why many professional workers in the Philippines such as doctors and others leave their jobs here and apply for positions related to their career and experience.

Anyway, higher salaries and compensation awaits anyone who will work abroad like Canada. There are also professional positions hiring jobs in Canada like CPA, teachers etc although majority of Filipinos apply for the skilled and Canada jobs with LMIA.

UPDATE: LMO is now termed as LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment). Citizenship and Immigration Canada has announced last June 2014 about a big change in their Temporary Foreign Worker Program.  Read the article below and then go back here.

It is also very helpful if you passed the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) to have an edge with Canada Express Entry program.
