Work Permit
Canadian work experience might be the first step in your journey to become a permanent resident.
Type of Work Permits
Most people need a work permit to work in Canada. If you require a work permit, you may be eligible for an Open Work Permit or Employer-Specific Work Permit.
Open Work Permit: Allows you to work for any employer in Canada, except for an employer listed as ineligible or employers that offer striptease, erotic dance, escort services or erotic massages.
Employer-Specific Work Permit: Closed work permits only let you work for a specific employer.

Once you get a job offer, we can help you apply for a work permit. We do not do the LMIA process. Buying or selling a job is a crime in Canada.
What do you need to know to work in Canada?
Credentials you got outside Canada will need to be assessed, such as:
Education
Work Experience
Professional Credentials
Prepare your credentials to be assessed, and it will help you:
Show prospective employers what you are qualified for
Understand the types of jobs you might be qualified for
Learn if your credentials are equal to the standards set for Canadian workers
Establish if you need more training, education or Canadian work experience
Customize your work experience, skills, and any additional information to match the role's requirements. Incorporate keywords from the job posting and always initiate your sentences with impactful action verbs like spearheaded, achieved, managed, trained, etc.
Draft your resume and cover letter to the Canadian market.
Please ensure your resume is optimized for the Applicant Tracking System (ATS). If it is not, it may be rejected.
Don't overlook the importance of reviewing your resume to ensure proper grammar, accurate spelling, and strong sentence structure. This is particularly crucial if English is not your native language.
