Sorry I've been MIA, I was preparing to land in Canada and landed a few days back and immediately started the job hunting process which is quite stressful. Yet still I'll try my best in answering queries whenever I can

Chaiiii Zandora, see as you just leave us for here. Enjoy Canada, sure fortune's gonna smile on you soon.

Please how much do I have to pay for WES ECA? Thanks

Good to know u are now in Canada @Zandora. What province?

You will surely get the maximum language points. I want to be like you come January lol. Any tips on the writing part?

Hello there! I will advise that you practice writing examples. ..at least 3 of each..and look for someone to 'mark' it for you. Time yourself (I used a stopwatch to practice) You can write more than 150 or 250 words...dont write too much though and most importantly..dont write less than the required words. Also..take into consideration the tense that was used in the question. If it was something that happened in the past, use appropriate past tense..and if its something that is present..use present continous. Dot your I's and cross your t's. Divide your writeup into paragraphs and make sure your writing is legible.
You should also try to take a couple of minutes to write out the points you want to write on and then just develop them. Just refer back to secondary school essay writing.
Finally..make sure you read over what you've written before time runs out. There might just be some little little mistakes you missed. USE PENCIL TO WRITE.It just makes it easier for you to make corrections. Oh ...also try to take more than 1 pencil. Two or three will be better..because anything can happen! Here is wishing you goodluck for January!

Hey Zanzan,

Congrats dear and wishing you the best!
Just a piece of info I found helpful myself about jobs. When I visited Canada in May this year on vacation, I did research about getting jobs there. First is having a skills that is in high demand. How do I know it true? Between June and Nov. I have passed two certification exams, one of them was a Canadian certification the other an American. I created a profile on the job site ca.indeed.com and monster.ca
So far I have turned down six high paying job offers! The reason was simple. I used a Canadian address but I'm in Nigeria. I did that just to validate that what i'm doing reflects the job market demand. I have remove my job profiles and will work on My EE profile to up my CRS.
Zandora, this story is just to let you know that the jobs are there. Hope you've got skills that is in high demand? All the best!

Hey superchi, thanks for that heads up. Can you please confirm your profession with NOC, the certification you passed and the province

Very useful post.
How do you determine skills in high demand for different fields in Canada? Or do you mean generic skills?

Thank you.

I will attempt to answer your questions to my best. Trades skills like plumber, auto technician etc will ordinarily be high in demand but I can't start there. So I research the top job site for Canada to see who employers a looking for. How do I do my research? Simple! i just use keywords to search these sites for example I type 'devops' and search. I get the result that shows all the number and jobs type with ''devops'' (devops, is a IT project management practice). The result even gives you the pay scale based on years of experience. The approach I mentioned is the most simple way to know jobs that are in high demand for personal use. Another thing I learnt was Canadian employer love Canadian qualifications. And why not?! I will like you to do your check, get relevant Canadian education or a simple popular certifications. I'm in Business Development, the NOC is something like 4163. In order to be free to do jobs that comes my way, I decided not to be the principal applicant. Even if PNP, I go to where the job is in Canada and the family remain in the nominated province! I hope this clarifies!

Thanks a lot. Yes I know there are jobs, infact I've already been booked for 2 interviews for jobs in my field. Fingers crossed.

@Zandora,

What is your field?

Cheers.

Hi JesusDWay,
Regarding reference letters from former employers. I tracked down my former employer from almost 10years back,he is not running the same business anymore and he his using a different company name now. I told him about him issuing reference letter for my past duties and he informed he no longer had letter head from the previous company anymore. What do you advise I do at this point?

Thanks

@Zandora Glad to know you are in Ontario province. I received a PT NOI from Ontario on the 4th of December which was last week Friday. With the set deadline of Jan 15th to either accept the NOI or reject the NOI. I will like to ask if you got your ITA through the Ontario Human Capital Stream, if Yes. What are my chances of getting a nomination from Ontario with a CRS of 406 if i accept the PT CRS from Ontario. Thanks

@Peters25


That is a scam and you just wasted your $50. If you want to read more about their fraudulent activities Google is there for you.

search this section as well for many threads opened by their victims.

Although this question is directed to zandora, i can answer it on her behalf since i have been here for a while . She didn't get her ITA through the Ontario Human Capital stream but from CIC.
With respect to the PT, many may think otherwise, but i don't see why you will be denied a provincial nomination if you are able to prove that you actually have documents to back up your 406 points.

NB
I also got the PT last Friday. The truth is, i will like to stay in Ontario; but the time frame given to respond to the PT NOI is rather short - i don't rule out the likelihood of meeting up with the financial requirements though.. There is nothing the Almighty God cannot do.

If he still does the same business, you have no problem, he can use the new letterhead for you

This thread will not be used to discuss anything agent/agency, they always turn up here to back their dealings anytime their name is mentioned or a complain thread is started about their fraudulent activities.

If you don't believe me then go ahead and pay them and learn from the experience.

Hello people! Please I have a question oo. I just got a mail from WES that my assessment is ready. I only sent my certificate to them and I'm sure they received it. But my transcript was just sent yesterday and I know for sure that its enroute. Can they do assessment with just the degree certificate? Should I be worried?
