Finding job in Canada as a Cuban

[Sidiey93]

Hello forum!
I am a young Cuban Spanish-English interpreter who is in search for a job offer. I have followed all the news about the immigration programs arriving to the conclusion that without a job offer it will be almost impossible to accomplish this goal. If anyone could shed some light on this and tell me about their experience or if you know about the odds for a Cuban citizen to go to Canada.
Good luck to us all!

It's next to impossible to secure a job offer in Canada since employers have to go through the long and expensive LMIA process. I would recommend you focus on qualifying and applying to immigrate and become a PR instead (you don't need a job in Canada to qualify for PR). You should assume it won't be possible to find a job until after you are a PR.

Thanks so much for your views. I will examine what you explain and see how this Permanent Residence process works for a Cuban. I will keep keep you informed.

Or come here to study and then qualify for a work permit after graduating.

FYI - It's the same process for Cubans as individuals from any other country.

I hold a Bachelor's Degree in English Language with French as a second language. That is the name of the major I studied in the University of Havana, Cuba. It is equivalent to a translator-interpreting degree.
So, I believe I could have more chances to find a job. let's see.
Thanks again.

As Scylla says it is next to impossible to get an employer to go through the LMIA process.

There's honestly almost zero chance you'll be successful in finding a job. I would again very strong recommend you focus on applying for PR instead.
