Thanks in advance


Top 10 interview mistakes

1. Not having learned French and underestimating the importance interviewing officers give to this criterion. Wanting to learn French only once the CSQ is issued.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Learn French right from the beginning and do not stop until you get to the interview. Do not stop learning French once you have succeeded the required level for the submission of your file, otherwise you will quickly forget your French and you will be unable to converse in French during the interview. In our experience, this criterion is given more importance than before and the majority of the interview will be conducted in French. Your knowledge of French will give you points not only for the French language criterion, but also for the adaptability criterion! Further, not being able to speak at least a little French reflects badly on your intent to settle in the Province of Quebec, which has to be emphasized throughout the process.
Do not believe that it is sufficient to assure the interviewing officer that you will learn French intensively once you are sure to make it past the selection stage (and when the French classes are reimbursed to up to 1,500 CAD). This type of reasoning is one of the most important refusal reasons! You have to prove your motivation to integrate to Quebec society before and during the interview, not afterwards.

2. Not knowing the licensing requirements of the professional body that governs the profession you intend to exercise in Quebec.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Do not be content with only signing the “Form for a profession governed by a professional order”. Call or write an email to the concerned order and get information about the licensing requirements, tests to take (if any) and the cost involved. Be ready to talk about the steps you need to undertake to become a nurse / accountant / engineer, etc. and potential language exams involved. See this webpage where you can find more information for your specific profession: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/employment/regulated-professions/professional-order.html

3. Not knowing your prospective job market well enough.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Our successful clients have made research over several months and were able to talk about the local companies (Quebec companies, not just multinationals) that operate in their field of interest. Also, they were able to discuss their salary expectations with regards to the current job market situation. Remember that newly arrived immigrants usually earn a little less than their well-established counterparts. Further, it is important to print job offers in your field and to have applied for a few of them to get an idea of the feedback to your profile. You can also ask the HR department or hiring manager for an “informational interview” where your chances once arrived in Quebec could be discussed.

4. Not bringing tax or social security documents to the interview (for each job).
o How to avoid this mistake?
Quebec immigration officers have become stricter on that criterion, because they want to make sure that you and your spouse’s work experience was acquired legally. Therefore, they expect you to bring proof of income tax payments or proof of social security contributions to the interview. Should the country in which you have been working not collect such taxes, then try to find the applicable law (e.g. the tax law or the budget bill) that states the income tax exemption, or any other proof of exemption. For example, you might want to get a letter from your employer’s accounting department, or from a chartered accountant or lawyer in that country.

5. Expecting that your degrees will automatically be recognized.
o How to avoid this mistake?
While some employers might hire you on the basis of your foreign degrees, it is recommended to request an “Évaluation comparative des études effectuées hors du Québec” (comparative evaluation for studies done outside Québec), which is an expert opinion issued for reference purposes that can help individuals who studied outside Québec find a job. It indicates how the studies completed outside Québec compare to the Québec education system and its main diplomas (or educational benchmarks). In particular, most professional orders require such an evaluation. See here: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/education/comparative-evaluation/submitting-request/index.html

6. Not recalling the “Common Values of Quebec”.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Remember: Quebec is a free, democratic, francophone and diverse society that emphasizes the equality of all and the separation between church and state. Please read through the following website: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/choose-quebec/common-values/index.html.

7. Not making your choice of Quebec clear enough.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Interviewing officers want to know that you consciously chose to immigrate to the Province of Quebec. Therefore, any mention of arguments such as “I might go and live in another Province” or “I only applied to the Quebec Skilled Worker program because I do not fulfill the criteria of the other immigration programs” will put your application at risk of refusal. Be ready to argue why you chose Quebec over any other Province. Quebec’s unique bilingual culture, diverse job market, European architectural influence, safety, etc. are only a few ideas. Make sure to always emphasize “Quebec”, in opposition to “Canada”.

8. Declaring that you or your spouse wants to go back to studies once arrived in Quebec.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Although, as a permanent resident, you will have the same rights as Canadian citizens (except for the right to vote) and you may therefore study as much as you want, you are applying through the Quebec Skilled Worker program – not the skilled student program. The Province of Quebec selects you as a skilled immigrant, confident that you will be able to join the workforce upon arrival and be an asset to it. Therefore, any mention of wanting to study instead of working, and benefit from scholarships and low tuition fees puts your application at a risk of refusal. Overall, it is important to emphasize your intention to actively contribute to society (by joining its workforce) instead of depending from it (scholarships, bursaries, and any other financial support).

9. Waiting for things to happen and not being proactive enough.
o How to avoid this mistake?
What the interviewing officer is looking for is a proactive attitude in researching your future home country. Even during the interview, you should at all times be proactive and freely talk about your efforts to research the Province of Quebec. Do not wait to be given the chance to discuss you (and your spouse’s) efforts. You have to sell yourself, just as if you were attending a job interview. Do not sit back and remain silent while the interviewing officer types down your responses. Remember: you will only be given one chance to succeed the interview! You have not come this far to wait for things to happen.



10. Not taking the interview seriously enough - not doing mock interviews.
o How to avoid this mistake?
Be early. Be well dressed. Be polite to the interviewer and to your accompanying family members. Learn a few sentences by heart with which you can greet the interviewer in French and introduce yourself and your family. Express your happiness to be there and to be given the possibility to be heard (still in French).
From successful candidates we have heard that the preparation to the interview takes several months, in addition to the months learning French. You will not be able to do convincing research on the Province in one day or one week, because you will not be familiar enough with the material and will not have had a chance to know the evolutions on the job market well enough. Contact anybody you know in Quebec and try to gather as much information as possible about the Quebecois lifestyle. Finally, a mention of “Poutine” – Quebec’s local dish of French fries, gravy and local cheese – or “Tourtière” (meat pie) has had quite a success in interviews.
Ask your friends to interview you about your motivations to immigrate to Quebec and your knowledge about the Province of Quebec. Prepare your responses and translate it all into French. Be able to present your knowledge naturally, not as if you learned it by heart.

Thanks a lot to put these information. I appreciate it. I will consider them carefully.

Just one question for now in my mind: When I applied, I was a student, now I finished studying but not working yet. I have updated them of this with official documents. Do I still need a letter from the university or from my supervisor to bring with me to the interview?

Thanks

Thanks a lot to put these information. I appreciate it. I will consider them carefully.

Just one question for now in my mind: When I applied, I was a student, now I finished studying but not working yet. I have updated them of this with official documents. Do I still need a letter from the university or from my supervisor to bring with me to the interview?

Thanks


I would take the letter. it is better to be over prepared than under prepared....all the very best and please share your interview experience when the time comes.

Hi , It is not true that if you send the photocopy then your file will be rejected.

Please see their Attention on your Letter
Attention!
Tous les documents attestant la légalité de l'expérience professionnelle doivent être émis par une autorité gouvernementale. Les documents émis par un employeur ou un comptable ne sont pas acceptés.


So if you send them the certified copy (by the governing body of that department) of your documents then those will be accepted.
Hi DebR
I'm from BANGLADESH & from APIS. As per i know you update your document last month. I hardly want to know from you that are you submit any tax exemption certificate?

Hi Rabeya84,
I have already mentioned that I submitted all my & my spouse Tax Certificate for last 5 years before my application date as they required. No need to submit any exemption certificate. And I've not received any update from VO.

Hi,

Where to get the document notarized in bangalore? Does anyone know any Advocate who does this in bangalore?

Also, there is a request to update the documents with 2 labels having the address in local language? What kind of labels are these? Is it a paper typed with address? or Does anyone have any idea on what are these?

Thanks & Regards

Hi all,

During my CSQ application process, I renewed my passport and got a new one with a new number. One of the members here suggested that I should notify them of this. The problem is that I thought renewing a passport will make a difference to the decision, so I didn't notify them withing the first 30 days of the change. Will this make any problem in the interview or I should submit a photocopy before the interview?

Thanks

If I fail the B2 tests & I cannot find an employer who is willing to sponsor me for the visa & my visitor visa to study is rejected, how to get my notarized documents back?
