Work permit and Canadian Employer
 

Hi All,

The lawyer handing my Permanent residency application, has suggested that if I find an employer who's willing to hire me and say so in writing, He can obtain a work permit for me within 2-3 weeks.

This leads me to believe that I can tell Prospective Canadian employers that from their point of view, They can treat me as any other candidate (though one which, at present, isn't in Canada), since I assume full responsibility for the Work-permit.

In your opinion, will Canadian employers accept this position, or must I wait for the formal residency papers (which are many months away).
