Hi all
I am planning to immigrate under Skilled Trades Class with my family from outside of Canada. I'm 37 and have 4 years bachelor's degree (assessed by WES) as an accountant. I have a IELTS 5 each band and have 5 years chef experience and certification from my country.

If I understood correct I'm qualified for Express Entry Skilled Trades program and I can apply as a Cook but must have job offer from Canadian employer.

My concern is:
What should I do first to start the application process? Look for job offer or create my express entry profile? Anybody please explain to me step by step

Thanks,

You cannot create an express entry profile as you do not fulfill the FST criteria, that is, if you create a profile it will be ineligible.

You either need to have an offer of full-time employment for a total period of at least one year or a certificate of qualification in that skilled trade issued by a Canadian provincial or territorial authority

My advice is to forget about Job bank, it is the most useless and garbage website to find a job.

I've been in this forum for 2 years and I still have not heard of anyone who managed to get a job through Job Bank.
