I plan migrating to Canada soon, though I plan on starting the process next year. I have been thinking of switching profession to IT here in nigeria to help in terms of work expedience before migrating.
Am considering two areas in IT Oracle Database Administator or Data Science/Big Data(The future of IT like it's been said). Which of these two will be the best career path in Canada?
Thanks

If you are into IT and planning on coming to CA, don't think twice as jobs full Toronto especially for developers. Just polish your LinkedIn profile, Not exaggerating but I get contacted at least once a week just from LinkedIn.

Travel / Canadian Express Entry In A Nut-shell by Dejav: 3:48pm On Jun 26, 2018
I decided to put this together as my journey from applying for Permanent Residency to getting it was quite a herculean task as I couldn't find all info in one place. Here are a few tips and links for those who are interested in applying.

Express Entry is a Canadian immigration program for experienced skilled workers, you can read about it on http://www.cic.gc.ca

In summary they have a ranking system where you register and you are scored based on information provided and draws are done fortnightly or there about, if you meet the required scores you are invited to apply for permanent residency. Currently the scores are hovering around 440 ( https://www.cicnews.com/)

The younger you are the more scores you get and the higher your level of academic qualification the more scores you get. Most importantly your scores in the English exam you will be required to take will be a major factor in determining your over all score. To have an idea of what your scores will be like, take a look at https://www.canadavisa.com/assess/mobile/assessment/skilledworker.html

The first step in applying for the express entry is to create an account on the CIC site, to get graded after creating the account you need 3 things:

1. IELTS General Training result (about 75k)

2. WES certificate evaluation result (about 100k)

3. NOC code

IELTS is an English exam organised by british council, it comprises of 4 sections; Reading. Writing, Speaking, Listening. To get an ideal score you need to score 8 in Listening and 7 in the rest. To read more about IELTS grading and exam registration take a look at https://www.britishcouncil.org.ng/exam/ielts
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-language-converter.html

WES is an international certificate evaluation body that verifies that your degree is equivalent to a degree in Canada, it requires you registering on their site and filling in your degree information then making payment, after which you will authorize your school to send a copy of your transcript to them while you send a copy of your certificate to them via post.

Use the url https://wes.org/

and make sure you select Canada when creating your account.

The NOC code also called national occupation code is simply a code that describes your career path which you are claiming experience for and have worked for at least the last one year, check your NOC code on
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/eligibility/find-national-occupation-code.html

With your WES and IELTS results you can create an account on the CIC site and wait for the draws.

I need to be sure I am not alone,
Got passport request in December 2017 which coincided with a training I was due to attend in India, got to India on the 26th December and sent my passport (and that of my dependents) to Accra on the 27th via DHL, it got to them on the 2nd of January and today is the 16th and I am still waiting, anyone with an idea of how long it takes for them to issue visa? has anyone submitted and is still waiting? I am due to come back to Naija on the 16th of February but growing impatient as my friend who did his late last year only stayed with them for 10 days.
Any info will be helpful.

Good day house,

Pls I was wondering for this FIRS vacancy, does one need to upload a medical certificate stating that one is medically fit as stated in the requirements?

Also, can IT certifications be uploaded as Professional qualifications as it seems it is required for one to be a member of that professional body which is not always the case with certifications.

Thanks in advance!

Medical Cert will only be required during documentation after being successful, You can fill your IT certification and double fill in the membership field if there is no membership requirement
