The network systems and data communication analyst career field is projected to grow by 30 percent from 2008 – 2018. The rapid spread of computers and technology has demanded an increase in highly skilled workers to develop and maintain systems for new technologies. Systems analysts typically solve problems related to computer technology to meet organizational needs. Network systems and data communications analysts are expected to be among the fastest.

You don’t need a magic wand to notice that it is a  Portable Career and business  in demand in Canada.

The computer software engineer career field is projected to increase by 21 percent since the year 2018. Computer software engineers generally design and develop new computer software systems by incorporating new technologies in a growing range of applications.  Openings for software developers who specialize in applications will rise by more than one-third (34%) since 2018, we are in 2021….rising pay in these fields reflects the surge in demand. What would we do without computers and technology  today? it’s the hottest of all.
 
2. Health care professionals. Partly due to the aging in Canada, health care has been hot for a while now, and the trend shows no sign of slowing. not all Portables but the field of Medical Records and Health Information Technicians , Physical Therapist Aides,  opticians, Veterinary Technologists and Technicians and Fitness Trainers and Aerobics Instructors are. You can open many business with them too. Will the world move forward without health professionals? Nope…..remember you need all your organs, limbs and mind….The health field is always a good investment and it’s always in demand. Can you do much without health? i don’t think so.

3.  Bilingual Health care management and support staff. Don’t have the training or experience to work directly with patients? No worries. “People often overlook the fact that businesspeople run health care companies. “With all the change happening in the system now, there is churn as well as growth. We’re constantly seeing new openings in general management, finance, marketing, human resources, you name it.” Being able to communicate in another language is an asset and it’s very portable.
 
4. Engineers. Note to college students who want their pick of job offers when they graduate: Consider majoring in engineering. A whopping 88% of employers in a new poll by the Society for Human Resource Management bemoaned the difficulty of finding enough engineers to hire.  Civil engineers are in demand too.

 
5. Industrial skills. Think Canadian  manufacturing is slowing down? Think again. Electricians, carpenters, welders. Moreover.  ”We’re seeing an increase in industrial hiring in logistics, supply-chain management, and plant management.” As more companies go global, demand for expertise in logistics — the art and science of moving stuff efficiently from one place to another — will continue to heat up.
 
 
6. Life sciences and biotech. Medical innovators ranging in size from Big Pharma down to biotech startups are on a hiring binge. As with health care companies in general, these employers will also need managers and support staff .
 
7. Salespeople/Customer representative. Selling has historically been the closest thing there is to a recession-proof career, and this economic downturn is no exception.  Since they’re the ones bringing the dough in the door, salespeople are often the first to be hired and last to get laid off.  
8. Accounting and finance. Demand for accountants and finance mavens (particularly forensic accountants and compliance specialists) has been climbing steadily for the past several years.
 
9. Discount retailers. “Not to mention any specific company names — everyone knows who they are, anyway — but the big locally discount store companies have flourished during this recession.

 
10. Private equity or wealth firms. Recruiters report that private equity firms are actively seeking management talent for their portfolio companies “across all industries and all functional areas. “They’re poaching already-employed, seasoned managers from big companies — people who can step into either a turnaround situation or a pre-IPO company and make it work. These are challenging jobs, and could be a real feather in a manager’s cap if he or she can bring it off successfully.”

Effective immediately, to be eligible to apply as a federal skilled worker, applicants must either have a job offer, or they must have experience in one of 29 in-demand occupations. These occupations were identified through analysis of updated labour market information and consultations with provinces, territories, stakeholders and the public.

but really the Canadian Government endures to receive requests in its general package of Federal skilled workers (FSWP) currently in 25 of the 29 occupations registered in governmental way.

Following 29 highly demanded professions come in new list.

If you are a skilled worker who has had one year of continuous full-time or corresponding part-time paid work experience in no less than one of the following eligible occupations within the last 10 years:

For the detail in the description of each occupation and its various titles and offices, should consult the official website of the National Occupational Classification NOC.   The Canadian government uses the National Occupational Classification system called (National Occupational Classification NOC). This system categorizes occupations in demand in the Canadian job market based on the following criteria:  

• “O” in management occupations, positions in the management, coordination and supervision.  

• Proficiency Level “A”: occupations that usually require college education.  

• Proficiency “B” occupations that require technical education (college) or specialized learning.

 • Proficiency “C” occupations that require secondary education (high school) or specific training.

 • Proficiency “D” occupations where training is given directly in the work.   National Occupational Classification:

The following is a condensed version of the major professions, specialties and professions that require the Canadian labor market, on the basis of the “National Occupational Classification.” Professions are included only in the categories “O”, “A” and “B”, as these take into account the Canadian point system that evaluates the capabilities of potential immigrants.   The general areas of competence of this classification are:  

• Business, Finance and Administration  

• Natural and applied sciences and related occupations

 • Health  • Social Sciences, Education, Government Service and Religion  

• Arts, Culture, Recreation and Sport  

• Trade, Transport, Equipment Operation, and related professions  

• Raw Materials Industry  

• Processing, Manufacturing and Utilities   Computer professionals and highly skilled Systems  During 1997, established a pilot program that enables Canadian employers, attract highly qualified professionals in the technical areas of Computing and Systems (software). This approach facilitates the recruitment of these staff on a temporary basis, without the necessary validation of a Human Resource Center.   This plan responds to the shortage of workers exists in Canada in these specialties and the prevailing demand industries quickly get highly qualified professionals and computer technicians.  Graduates in branches of Engineering, Information Systems or other technology-related areas are encouraged to perform a formal validation of Canadian institutions that apply.  

Nursing:  Nursing is a profession with the highest occupational demand in Canada. The public health system needs to attract as many technical and health professionals. Therefore, the government makes great efforts for recruitment. It is expected that by 2011 and through 2012. The national deficit of nurses in Canada amount to 80 thousand professionals. This is a great opportunity for foreign workers who have experience in the area.  

Care Workers and Health Care at Home (“Caregivers”)

There is special interest in working in Canadian homes remain full-time care of children, disabled people and, especially, the elderly. Over 4 million people in Canada are over 65. In fact, 1 in 7 Canadians is part of the so-called third age.

Professionals in the field of health and health care are scarce in Canada, which opens up to foreign employment opportunities in this field.   To gain approval, you must also demonstrate that you have enough money to support. There are many other options to immigrate to Canada as a skilled worker. If you do not meet the criteria required by the Federal Government, we invite you to read our other sections on the various provincial programs and  A complement MI – 4 has made permissible for global PhD students to put on for enduring habitation in FSWP, however missing the further features of the unaffected FSWP.   It stood experiential that certain works fulfill additional nippily than others.

As of December 8, 2011, masses have been decided for four of the 29 occupations. This shows that the applicants to these occupations could no longer rub in further down the FSWP, till the CAP is re-established in July 2012.   Though, the 25 additional occupations are exposed now. Certain of them such as GPs and dentists are probable to be the next, with 350 requests previously putative by the CIC. Applicants for these occupations must act rapidly to safe a location in the lot of pay for this time.

These work visas are designed for Canadian Companies  that are able to recruit highly skilled workers either from overseas or from people temporarily in Canada where an employer has been unable to fill their recruitment needs from the Canadian labour market or through their own training efforts. There are both temporary visa options and permanent visa options. Below is an outline of these visas:

Temporary Sponsorship Options
Canadian businesses that need to have their skilled positions filled but cannot find workers from within the Canadian labour force, can sponsor personnel from overseas on a temporary basis, to work in  Canada for up to 4 years.

The most common visa available under the temporary arrangements is:

Sponsorship by Canadian or overseas businesses
There are 3 steps in the application process to bring in temporary overseas staff:

Sponsorship
Business sponsorship approval must be obtained by the business wishing to sponsor overseas workers. The business demonstrates that it is of good standing, shows the benefits of an overseas employee, and provides adequate training plans and expenditure. Employers are required to meet a number of undertakings in relation to the sponsored employee.   For instance  licensed  lawyers will personally meet with the  Canadian Employer and provide any documentation required for the process.   License Canadian lawyers  will compile and professionally submit the application by mail.  Oline applications would  only be safe within Canada , as this  method of application could provide quicker processing times.

Nomination
The nomination must relate to an occupation that meets a minimum skills threshold covering managerial, professional, associate professional and trade occupations.  Check  for instance (BC PNP) . An occupation is selected and you need to meet the correct qualifications and work experience that pertains to that occupation. There are criteria applicable for the nomination and licensed lawyers will provide the information required to both the Canadian company and the nominee to ensure that a comprehensive application is submitted.

Visa Application
The overseas skilled employee that is nominated must apply for a visa to enter and remain in  Canada. The application will need to demonstrate that they have the skills and qualifications applicable to the nominated occupation. Other criterion needs to be met and licensed migration lawyers will provide the required information to the applicant and will professionally compile and submit the application by mail or in person  for priority processing.

Is this you?

You are looking for a job in Canada. You’re facing at least one of the following obstacles, and it is starting to get tough:

• You don’t have a work permit
• Job prospects are sparse
• You want a flexible work schedule
• You are running out of money
• You don’t know where to look next
  

What do you do?

If you live overseas looking for a job and have not been able to get hired by a company, it may be time for a different approach.

Here is a quick and easy answer that can open up many kinds of exciting and profitable opportunities for you:

Start thinking like a business owner   rather than a job hunter.

Set up your own consulting or freelance business, and start to scout for clients, not a job. Send out brilliant business proposals instead of résumés. Have business meetings with potential clients instead of interviews with potential employers.

Propose clever ideas for improving your client’s business. And when the time is right and your client is ready, name your price. They can accept it or reject it, but eventually you will probably end up negotiating the terms, just like you would when accepting a job offer.

Setting up your own business is not as hard as it sounds. And, it is a little-known trick to potentially getting around the work-permit issue – at least for a one-person business in the short run. (If you want to set yourself up as a corporation with more employees than just yourself, the process becomes more complicated but can be done with the help of lawyer.)  Plus, having your own business can open up worldwide opportunities, as well as multiple streams of income, which can lead to quick income as well as a flexible lifestyle.

Setting up your own business  is a perfect solution for trained professionals looking for ways to use their professional skills locally, on a full or part-time basis, and can be a particularly fitting solution for working mothers who want flexibility to care for the family while still enjoying professional fulfillment.

Thinking like a business owner can help you create your own exciting and profitable opportunity abroad in at least three ways:

1. Get Your Foot in the Door to a Company
By setting yourself up as a consultant or freelancer, you may also be able to sell yourself to a company. Instead of hiring you as a full-time employee, a company can hire you on a contract basis, which may be an advantage for both of you. In the future, you could be considered for a long-term position if one becomes available.

Additionally, in many countries the company might be able to avoid paying expensive social security and other taxes by hiring you as a consultant. This is a good negotiating point when you are trying to convince a company to hire you as a consultant.

2. Create a Portable Career
If you move from country to country every few months to every few years, you may desire a portable job and career that you can take with you wherever you go. You can do lots of interesting work from a laptop, including writing, website development, graphic design, software design, content development, research, translation work, business consulting and many other Internet-related jobs.

3. Be Inspired by other Business Entrepreneurs
Find out how other people are living, working and established business in Canada. If you hear ideas that strike your fancy, make contact with the folks and ask them for advice. One middle-aged korean couple buys and restores old farmhouses and rents them out to tourists. Another Colombian living in Vancouver gives seminars and workshops in photography and art. And one woman who lives in Newfoundland  permanently uses her graphic skills to design newsletters for clients in the United States. These people are living where they want and the way they want. And with a little ingenuity, you can too.

First off, what is your nationality – do you have citizenship to EEUU (USA)  or is your  country part of  NAFTA? If you do, then it’s easy to get a residence permit, which gives you the legal right to work in Canada.  From there, your past work experience will leave you fairly well-prepared to find work in  Canada. In fact, the IT sector is the industry that a large amount of foreigners find jobs in.

If you don’t have EEUU (USA) citizenship then you have a long journey ahead of you. You’ll need to first find a job, convince a reluctant Canadian employer to hire you because no other local is qualified to perform the job, and then start the residence permit application process. Only once this is granted can you actually begin work. You should note that the Canadas employ an incredibly restrictive, quota-based foreign immigration policy that only grants residence permits to, arguably, the incredibly healthy; the highly skilled and educated immigrant.

I can reassure you that if you are committed to your own personal satisfaction and peace of mind, and have the tenacity to embark upon a new path, change is not only possible – it is doable.  Remember the Chinese symbol for fear is a combination of two other symbols:  danger and opportunity.  Use this time in your life as an opportunity to positively transition your career using some of the strategies below.

Tips for professionals in Transition

Following are some practical suggestions to help you assess different paths available to you as a traomed professional:

1.Determine What you Do Best – Manyh of the the skills you use every day as a  trained professional are extremely transferable.  Part of your dissatisfaction likely stems from doing work you don’t enjoy for people who may not appreciate your contribution.  Develop a list of skills and activities you enjoy (writing, mentoring others, providing sound advice to clients, leading your team, etc.) – as well as those you don’t (internal politics, working long hours, research, dealing with those who don’t appreciate or value you, etc.).  Now, review the list and reflect upon the fact that other professions will value and appreciate your best and highest level skills – and those skills are not limited to “just” being a (insert your career here).

2. Identify your Inner Circle – Create a list of your closest clients, contacts, friends, referral sources, business associates, community members, religious leaders; those whose advice you trust and respect.  Use this list to selectively and confidentially meet with your trusted advisors.  Tell them you are open to a change at this stage of your career.  Tell them what you enjoy doing most, and then be open to their ideas and suggestions.

3. Give Rainmaking a Shot – If you are unhappy in your practice, you are likely frustrated about your own perceived lack of marketing savvy.  Before you throw in the towel, develop and implement an individual marketing plan for yourself.  Whether you are a solo practitioner, mentor, an advisor in a small firm, or in a large firm, individual marketing is where the rubber meets the road for trained professionals.

4. Get some Professional Advice – If you are truly looking at making a career change, talk to a professional career counselor; preferably one who has successfully helped in your field of services make career transitions.

5.Consider a Personal Marketing Coach – If you choose #3 above, you might benefit from the focus, accountability, process, and expertise a marketing coach could bring.

6. Beef up your Resume – Regardless of whether or not you make a move now, it is always smart to keep your resume polished and up to date.

7. Create Representative Experience – Define your experience as a trained professional by category of experience.  Then, select the type of clients who best exemplify your work.   Create a brief summary of each engagement by stating: Type of Client, Client’s Issue, My Approach, Solution or Results Generated.  This is a great marketing tool as either an addendum to your resume, or to add to your professional biography.

8. Work your Network – During times of transition it is more important than ever to stay in touch with those in your network.  Make a point to attend events, schedule coffee or lunch, or in other ways to connect with your contacts.  Your next career opportunity will likely come through someone you already know!

9. View Transition as an Opportunity – Pat yourself on the back and acknowledge that many unhappy trained professionals never reach the point of seriously implementing any of the ideas above.  If you choose to, you will find happiness beyond serving as a trained professional, or, with a few adjustments, delivering trained profesional services the way you want to.For other resources and workshops aimed at  Business, employment and  career transition contact
