Hi seniors,

I've entered the EE Pool in May this year and since then I haven't matched with any proper job, I am a computer programmer (I have six years of experience in the NOC 2174) and the service detects terrible matches such as restaurant manager and store manager. All the detected matches scored 2.5 out of 5 stars which is awful.

My EE score is just 353 and my time is running out, I've been seeking jobs in the job bank and sent a lot of times my resume to many jobs posting but I haven't receive any answers yet.

Can you get me any piece of advice to find a job offer??

Fernando.

It's generally very difficult to find a job under this noc. Don't count on finding a job. Is there anything else you can do to increase your score? Retake IELTS?

:( is it the same for NOC 2173? My IELTS score is L:7, R:7.5, S:7 and W:6, It was very difficult to me to get it, so I think I will give up about to live in Canada. thanks for the info.

Difficult to find a programming job? The local programming boot camp (8 weeks from nothing to being a programmer) has a 100% job placement rate.

Getting a LMIA is harder, but still quite doable if you have specialized skills.
