FSW WORLDWIDE

[Shubham6120]

Why don't you give them a call or check the website? Took me roughly 30 seconds to find the link and get the form to book an appoitment.

Because i am in India and not in canada. I have job finalized and wanted to get the sin no. Earlier.

Just received this from IRCC....anyone know if it means application under review...?

Dear client CAN000xxxxx,

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has put in place a temporary public policy that exempts some low-risk, in-Canada foreign nationals from having to complete an additional immigration medical exam as part of their application for permanent residence or for a permanent resident visa.


If you have completed an Immigration Medical exam (IME) within the last 5 years, include your IME or UMI number when you submit your online application for permanent residency. IRCC will process your permanent resident application with your previous medical exam results and notify you of next steps.

If you have not previously completed an IME, please complete one before you submit your application.

Thank you for your interest in Canada.

Sincerely,

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

My guy. You can check literally google "Get SIN appointment" -> proceed to the first link -> and figure out from there. Like, I don't understand what is the problem?

Basically, its the scheme followed by all FAANG companies. There is no real focus on individual tech.

Yup. I like this about FAANG. I really want to join Google but one thing that I don't like is team matching. Pretty much go through all those rounds to end up at not-so-good/interesting team is a crappy feeling.

Exactly that. Check out Boeing and Indian software engineering:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-06-28/boeing-s-737-max-software-outsourced-to-9-an-hour-engineers . It's behind the paywall but if you google, you will be able to crack it.

If Boeing did that what makes you think that companies where a cost of mistake is not that high don't go the same route? Plus, most of the jobs are pretty easy. When the last time your bank (TD, CIBC) rolled out anything significant? When the last time Walmart did the same? What about Manulife? What about 99% of other service providers in Canada? This is where most of the newcomers will be applying. Not FAANG, Uber or other tech. companies.

There is this entire documentary about Boeing. One must know that Boeing as a company is living in stone of software development. I mean 4-5 years back for Boeing and for Lock-Mart, Agile was a revolution. Agile became a standard in software development industry much earlier. These companies are not really software development houses by choice but by force. They were once something totally different and were forced to shelter a software development firms in-house because how pervasive computers have become. They never really embraced software development and honestly, they are not totally wrong. Just that world changed too fast for them.

One more thing that messes up software is the thinking that its easy. Its NOT. Its just that as a industry, software and IT has a habbit of tolerating substandard solution more than any other industry. It is not uncommon to find literally solutions held together with digital "duct tape" and being used in alarmingly critical places. I mean imagine, if bridges were build in this fashion... But then there is a real cost in terms of life when a bridge fails so people have come to respect standard solutions and training in case of bridge. In case of software, what worse could happen? It will crash! Who cares? That attitude is still prevelent in Industry.


BTW, how do you think IRCC "engineers" its solutions. Take a peek!

https://vancouverimmigrationblog.com/harvester-why-ircc-is-harvesting-your-submitted-application-documents-with-their-latest-automation-tool/

They are using UI Automation to pull YOUR attached documents from GCMS for offline review and keeping them on shared drive. Meanwhile solution has no concurrency control (it is supposed to be used concurrently). Possibly uses file locking to prevent corruption of critical database files. I will not be surprised that they loose a lot of your attached documents.

I expect TD etc to be better than these folks but this is what is being used in canadian government "backends".

I interviewed with them this fall. Made past phone screen (back tracking question dressed as a DP one, sneaky sneaky google!). Did all the rounds. Some reason it was back tracking season everywhere in google. Messed up one coding round -- like messed up pretty bad. Was asked to apply again in 6-7 months.

lol FSW only draw.

Lol Right, When I just created the profile I had 16k in the bank and qualified for FSW, now that I am in Canada on WP and qualify for CEC, I no longer have money lol. How is it that the moment I gain enough points, they stop All program draws?

If you added foreign work experience, you should qualify for both FSW and CEC, not sure if you will receive the invite though.

Damn man :/ Sorry to hear that. Graph and DP is kinda Google thing. I think FB loves Trees and Graphs.

Their cool down period is also pretty strict. For example, I messed up interview at Amazon, got a call in 2 weeks from a different recruiter, told them about cool down period, they told me not to worry about it )

Huh? It's been a while since I saw something like that. However, I have already posted in CEC thread that this was kind of expected. Won't last too long but it was expected.

Oh dont worry. I was not even looking for change. They found me somehow and invited me. I said, okay, lets try this as well. Prep'ed up on Neet-150 and cracking the design round.
