Job offer reality

I post this question on a serious note.

Do people really find jobs when they apply from a country other than Canada and use that to immigrate?

It is amazing that people on this forum know the facts that the NOC on which you get immigration you may never be able to work in that field but the Canadians do not seem to know this.   

It will be less than 10% of applicant who will continue in their professions and it is not the highly skilled ones for sure. For example a doctor will not be able to practice medicine or a pharmacist or a nurse unless they go back to school and retrain involving upto 4/5/6 years of training costing thousands of $$$. The only ones who stand a chance of getting a job in the field are likes of chefs, cooks, plumbers etc. Yet Canada is fast tracking these so called in-demand occupations. Why? Do they not know the facts? Or Canadians like to have doctors/specialist physicians drive taxis, work in security agencies or macdonals?

i agree with you pb55. Immigration is biased. It is very true that hardly 10% of the so called highly skilled people will work in the Noc in which they get immigration. I have seen this happening here in Australia and my wife even says me the same about Canada. In one of my earlier posts i mentioned that Canada needs skilled labourers not skilled immigrants. I personally think that any doctor or a good educated person who comes to canada and keeps driving taxi should not waste an immigration slot and should better stay in his or her country.

I agree with Kanamen. I can speak for IT atleast, I know more than 6 immigrants personally in IT field who have got good jobs in IT field and in some cases better that what they were doing in their home country.

I think it depends on your field, your efforts and motivation

Respected Kanamen, Satdxb, Ankit and Hmisabpk
All of you are right. I really feel proud when i see a successful immigrant. Whatever i said was for immigrants who do not have the qualities that all of you have mentioned. Did i say anything wrong by taking an example of a doctor who gets into driving taxi instead of his or her profession and keeps on doing it. It is not for all the immigrants but specially for those who dont possess the qualities that have been mentioned by the above respected members. These immigrants only possess bundle of degrees but no insight to their field. Sorry if i am wrong.

Not true, most licensed professions in Canada allow foreign grad candidates from recognized institutions to sit for the Canada exams to test eligibility and competency standards. Then to meet other requirements such as residency requirements, supervisory practice, etc.  However, if you don't pass the exam, then you can't practice in your profession. The struggle many immigrants face are the initial Hurdle of taking the exams. You can still work in the profession that you want but you need to work hard and start everything all over again.

Let me give you an example of a doctor.
It is a real story of a Respectable Doctor with a family of five. A disable person with great power to success.
She landed in2001
She evaluated her credential
She attended Advance English classes
She attended seminars ,lectures and all events regarding settlement for new immigrants
She attended so many resume and interview preparation classes
She got enrolled in a voluntary position in a hospital for helping /guiding the visitors/patients
She did social work to help aged personnel ( free of cost)
She studied herself at home to get prepared for three exams to pass to be recognized as Canadian Doctor
and she MADE it with highest ranking

Now a days she is a well known and very respectable in her community and hospital
