Hello All!
Just introducing myself. I'm new...
I am Aussie girl arriving in Canada end of June. I want to find work in Alberta but I know I must have an offer of employment for a work permit.
My question is to anyone familiar with the hospitality industry there. I know several positions in the industry are classified as 'occupations under pressure' by immigration Canada. (I only want to work for a couple of years).
I work as a Front Desk Clerk and Food and Beverage Attendant. I have 12 years experience in hospitality but does anyone know what I'm up against? In Australia hospitality is not seen as being a highly skilled job, but employers will value you highly if you have the experience. Is is the same in Canada?
Does anyone know how I will be received when I go on the job hunt? Is it a deterrant for potential Employers to have to go through the red tape with Service Canada in order to hire a Foreigner? I know there are extreme shortages in this industry over there, but how bad is bad?
I am also a qualified Travel Agent and Swedish Massage Therapist, but don't think my qualifications in Massage will be recognised there in Canada.
I really like Canadians and hope to make my dream come true... Actually, I'm pretty keen on one in particular
Any help is appreciated!
