Job Seekers portal

[luckyqamar]

Dear all,

I have a question regarding job bank portal jobbank gc ca

Is this portal specifically designed for foreign aspirants wanting to come to Canada, which implies that when an employer lists a job on this portal they are open to/willing to process LMIA for you in case they decide to hire you.

While if we hunt a job via other networks like linked in etc even if the employer wants to hire me, they may not be prepared or have company policy to provide candidates with LMIA.

Any comments/observation in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Yes,you can apply for jobs using the Job bank portal but you may need to find out if the employer is willing to provide you with an LMIA backed job offer and if they are willing to hire someone outside Canada.You may try searching for jobs using various other websites like Linkedin,Indeed CA etc but if you don't have Canadian work experience or exceptional skills its highly unlikely for the employer to hire someone outside Canada.

Job Bank is more of a requirement or formality to be completed to activate your Express Entry profile and enter the pool. As far as I remember, there is no case reported by an applicant where they were able to find a job via Job Bank. The only case where you may get through for an LMIA is if you have any niche skills and qualification and the Canadian employer is not able to find anyone locally; the chances of which is very slim.

Also, please note that the alerts that you get/may get from Job Bank with regard to jobs matching your NOC will no way be close to what your actual NOC is. If you are interested to look out for jobs, register on job sites, check out prospective company job postings on their websites , LinkedIn etc.
