I am newbie to this forum.

Sorry if sounds ridiculous but I process 4+ years of experience in service/ operations industry (which I suppose does not fall under any skilled worker category) and I was wondering if there is any way I can get a job or apply for a work permit in canada.
I don't have any relatives in Canada so I am all by myself, not sure if this has been answered or covered in any other thread.

Any help will be appreciated :) thanks

Sadly, not many companies want to go through the hassle of applying for LMO. But you'll never know. You have to start somewhere. I have read a post where someone sent a thousand(?) resumes before he received an interview and got the job.
