Hello all,


1-Are there any specific companies through Canada which are accepted this type of working?or anyone can personally offer them that would like to work freely ?

2- Would volunteer jobs also count toward the work experience in Canada ?

Assuming this question is for eligibility for CEC; read on.

How we calculate work experience
Your skilled work experience must be paid work including paid wages or earned commission. We don’t count volunteer work or unpaid internships.
For part-time work, you can work more or less than 15 hours/week as long as it adds up to 1,560 hours. You can work more than 1 part-time job to get the hours you need to apply.
We don’t count any hours you work above 30 hours/week.

So no, any unpaid work experience doesn't count as work experience in or out of Canada.

Are you asking before you get PR or after you get PR?

If before you are a PR:

1 - Generally this isn't possible since you would need a work permit even if you aren't being paid.
2 - No, this won't count as work experience. Work experience must be paid.
