Hi guys,

I have an open work permit and I've recently got a job offer from a company.
My job category usually require an LMIA but since I have already my open work permit, the company will not ask for one.
in the EE, Will I get points for the job offer anyway?

Thanks !

No, you will not get points for this offer.
It has to be one with LMIA to be awarded points in EE.

Are there any chance for me to be eligible as LMIA exempt ?

No. Either you need to have LMIA or the work permit should be a closed work permit and satisfy few other conditions.

Job offer on open work permit does not qualify for any points.

Your question has already been answered. You need an approved LMIA if you want job offer points.
