The number one most common mistake new immigrants make when they come to Canada is to neglect to sufficiently prepare themselves for the Canadian Labour market prior to making their move to Canada, simply because they are unaware that many steps towards establishing their career can be completed before moving. Unfortunately, many newcomers end up in jobs that don’t make use of their education and training. To avoid this situation it is important for them to evaluate their skills, experiences and education, to evaluate how their skills fit into the Canadian labour market prior to moving. In most cases new comers to Canada believe it will be easy and quick to find employment in Canada. Over a quarter million immigrants enter Canada annually. In fact Canada welcomes more new immigrants per capita than any other country in the world. Canada is generally in favour with the admission of professionally trained immigrants. However, often times upon arrival, internationally educated professionals have difficulty securing employment in their chosen careers. The main reason is that new immigrants are quite often unfamiliar with the structure of local and national labour markets; also they may not have social networks that could support their job search and do not know what requirements and credentials employers are looking for. In addition, they do not have Canadian work experience. If they wish to be employed in regulated occupations, for example in certain trades, law, engineering, and the health field, they must be certified and/or licensed through professional associations. According to Statistics Canada internationally educated physicians and engineers are less likely to find employment in occupations that match with their professional training. Most foreign educated professionals such as doctors, engineers and lawyers aren’t working in the career they trained for after arriving in Canada. In addition, underemployment is most common among foreign trained immigrants born in South East Asia and East Asia.
