Working in Canada - FINDING JOBS IN CANADA

The Canadian labour market is very competitive and it is important to note that approval to immigrate does not guarantee employment, even if you are highly skilled. It may take some time to find a suitable job. The job market fluctuates depending on prevailing economic factors, the type of work you are seeking and other specific circumstances which may affect different industries or parts of the country.

In Canada, about 20 percent of jobs are regulated by the government to protect public health and safety. Some examples of occupations in this group include: nurses, doctors, engineers and teachers. Before you migrate, you should find out whether any special requirements or conditions apply to jobs you might wish to undertake.
