The measures outlined below will assist a foreign national in landing one of Canada’s million job openings.
Step 1: Update your phone number or email address.
When an employer makes a job offer or wants an interview, he must contact the candidate right away or leave a message.
The applicant must have an active phone number with a professional voice mail system in order to work in Canada. Foreign nationals must attempt to develop and record a script for their voicemail system.
That recording must have previous company details and proper experience so the employer may undertake background research before contacting a second time.
Step 2: Create a Profile for Express Entry.
Under the Express Entry program, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) allows international candidates to build an online Express Entry profile. In order to build an Express Entry profile, candidates must:
- The applicants must have a language proficiency test to showcase their language skills (one of Canada’s official languages, English or French).
- If the applicant wishes to go to Canada through the Federal Skilled Worker program, the foreign education qualifications should be examined.
- The job that the candidate has been offered or is anticipating to be offered by a Canadian employer must be classified in the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list.
- Determine whether you are eligible for Express Entry immigration points.
- Create the Express Entry profile using the following criteria.

Step 3: Before you immigrate, look for work.
Foreign nationals wishing to immigrate to Canada under an economic program must begin looking for work before arriving.
87 percent of recruiters use LinkedIn and social media sites to find applicants to join their companies. LinkedIn provides a candidate with an online presence, reputation, and trustworthiness.
Because most employers conduct job interviews via Zoom or other webinar software, this strategy assists applicants in preparing for the online interview.

Step 4: Determine the niche markets that best suit your skills.

Foreign citizens typically bring in-demand language skills, extensive knowledge from their own country, and unique business practices.
A niche can be defined as a specific area of competence or talent within a field.
A niche can be a specific area of competence within a larger topic in some situations.
