Tips For Connecting with Nova Scotia AIP Employers
Since 2017, Canada’s Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP) has been massively expanding and has become a favourable option for those interested in Canadian immigration.
The Atlantic Immigration Program gives skilled foreign workers and graduates the opportunity to be nominated to live and work in Atlantic Canada.
Eligible applicants must present an approved job offer from a qualified employer with their application documents. In this blog, we’re providing you a few tips to land that job offer with an Nova Scotia Immigration employer.
Create your cover letter and resume
TIn Canada, these are two very important documents you need on your job hunt. A resume is a professional document that tells employers about your skills, goals, experience and qualifications for the role. In sending your resume to an employer, it is often accompanied by a cover letter which introduces yourself, your qualifications, and your abilities in a personable letter format.
Cover letters can often make or break the decision on your application as 86% of executives said cover letters are extremely valuable when evaluating job candidates.
Get your resume and cover letter into the right hands
The ultimate key to job searching is to get your resume into the right people’s hands. You can do this by networking and connecting with top employers online, but the most common way of job searching is to respond to job postings or listings. These can be found on job bank sites such as LinkedIn (which is also great for networking), Career Beacon, Careers Nova Scotia, Service Canada – Job Bank, and more.
Nail your interview process
If you are able to secure an interview with an employer, the final step is to go in confidently and professionally. You will be asked questions about your background, identity, experience, and reasoning for moving to Canada, so be sure to have these answers prepared.
