There are some professions that are in demand all across Canada, some are more region or even town specific. If you want to find a job in Canada that will help you obtain permanent residency in the short term, where you choose to work should be just as important as getting a job to begin with. The Provincial Nomination Programs are one of the ideal programs to obtain PR status effectively, as a provincial nomination is worth 600 points on your Express Entry application which all but guarantees an invitation to apply for permanent residency.
Let’s take a quick moment to run through the immigration process should you be considering immigrating to Canada through the PNP. You can apply directly to the province for permanent residency, or you could go the Express Entry route, which is significantly faster. If you choose to apply via Express Entry you will need to create an online profile. On this profile you will put in all your information and upload supporting documents, this will then be used to calculate a Comprehensive Ranking Score out of 600. The total amount of points available is 1,200. The additional 600 points can be earned with things like a job offer (50-200 points) or a provincial nomination, which is worth 600 points on its own! Alright, so let's take a look at some of the provinces and their in-demand occupations:![Jobs in Canada Management]()
