Working as an engineer in Canada

Engineering in Canada is a regulated profession, meaning that by law you will need a licence to practice as an engineer. There are 12 licensing jurisdictions across Canada, and a licence is valid only within the jurisdiction from which it is granted. However, there are mobility agreements in place between these 12 associations.

Required criteria for working as an engineer

In order to sit the licence exam, you must fulfil certain criteria. The actual criteria differ slightly between provinces so it is best to check with the jurisdiction where you intend to live and work. But as a general guideline, the following is expected:

• It is not possible to become licensed as an engineer prior to migrating to Canada, as you must be either a citizen or hold permanent resident status.
• You must possess a recognised degree, and should provide the relevant association with as much information as possible on your qualifications.
• You must have completed a minimum of three to four years of engineering work. This depends on the association, but it is usually required that at least one year be in a Canadian environment.
• You need to pass a professional practice exam, which is held once or twice a year – again depending on the association.
• You must be of good character and reputation (i.e. no criminal convictions).
• You must be proficient in either of Canada's recognised languages, French or English.

Starting the licensing application

Certain parts of Canada will allow you to commence the licensing application before you migrate. If you intend moving to Québec or Ontario, it is worthwhile speaking to the respective associations prior to moving.
You may work in Canada doing engineering-related work, but only if a Canadian-registered engineer accepts responsibility for the work you complete. You can register as an engineer-in-training with the association in your area. They will provide you with help and resources to assist with any queries you may have.

Legislation that may affect you

You should exercise caution, as it is illegal for a non-licensed engineer to approve plans or provide ‘engineering’ services to the public. There is other legislation that can affect your role as an engineer, so in the first instance it would be wise to seek employment with a reputable company aware of all the laws and requirements governing this field.

Point of contact

A very useful first point of contact for all professionals considering immigrating to Canada is the Foreign Credentials Referral Office. This department will help you in your quest for employment. The services it offers include a recognition service for foreign degrees and other professional qualifications.

Foreign applicants are expected to apply with specific medical skills and experience, generally as skilled migrants. They must also have a job offer in Canada. They will be given tests to ascertain that their education levels and medical skills meet the requirements of the Canadian health care system. They will also have to demonstrate a functional aptitude with English and/or French.
With domestic labour dwindling rapidly due to retirements, and with fewer experienced replacements available, admitting qualified foreign medical personnel into Canada is essential to the health and well-being of all Canadians. Immigrants, both temporary and permanent, will constitute a large portion of the labour force of Canada's future.

Effective 1 July 2012, the SkillSelect model is one of the biggest changes to the Australian immigration system in years.

Under this skilled migrant selection model, Australia moves to a system similar to that used by New Zealand, and based upon an Expression of Interest (EOI).
SkillSelect - what it entails

• People applying for a Skilled Migrant visa will first have to register their claims for skilled migration through an online EOI.
• Before lodging an EOI, applicants must first have gained the miniumum 65 points on the Points Test; have had their skills assessed and have passed the required English language test.
• Receiving a pass mark does not guarantee that an applicant will be invited to apply for a visa, as Australian Immigration makes the final decision. 
• If аn invitation іѕ nοt received within 2 years, thе EOI wіll lapse.
• Applicants will be permitted tο update thеіr EOI аt аnу time during the 2 year period аnd wіll hаνе thе option tο renew thеіr EOI аftеr 2 years.
• Quotas will also be introduced for occupations and once the caps are reached, applications for that particular occupation will be closed off until the following year.

Other changes effective 1 July 2012 include:

• A new online service connecting Australian employers with potential skilled migrants
• Streamlining of the pathway to permanent residence for people already working in Australia on temporary skilled 457 visas.
• The employer nomination scheme and the regional sponsored migration scheme will be integrated with the new skilled migrant selection register, SkillSelect.  
• There will be a fast-tracked pathway from the 457 visa to permanent residence under the employer-sponsored visa program, enabling skilled migrants to settle and work in regional and metropolitan Australia.

It will be compulsory to submit an expression of interest (EOI) for the following visa programs:

Subclass 189 Skilled – Independent (Permanent) (Class SI)
Subclass 190 Skilled – Sponsored (Permanent) (Class SK)
Subclass 489 – Regional Sponsored (Provisional) (Class SP)
Business Skills visa program.

It is optional (although highly recommended) to submit an EOI for the following visa programs:

Subclass 186 – Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) (Class EN)
Subclass 187 – Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (RSMS) (Class RN)
Subclass 457 – Temporary Business (Long Stay) (Class UC)

Australian Immigration Minister Chris Bowen said the new model for selecting skilled migrants would "better target Australia's future skill needs", and deliver stronger outcomes for employers who weren’t able to fill their skilled positions locally.

There will be 129,250 places in the skilled migrant stream in 2012-13, an increase of 3,400 places.

If you are applying for a General Skilled Migration visa, you will be evaluated through a points system. Since the new points system was introduced on 1 July 2011, points are awarded  for a broader range of skills and attributes, including better English levels, skilled work experience and higher qualifications. Australia will introduce a new Skilled Migrant Selection Model next year, which is expected to be effective from 1 July 2012.

In the meantime, all applicants must still nominate an occupation on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL) and have their skills assessed in their nominated occupation.

Age

Your age is the only the factor relevant to the scoring process that is outside of your control. Under the new points system, the highest points are awarded for those applicants in the 25-32 year age bracket. The age limit for applications has also been increased to 49 years, although no points are award for applicants in the 45-49 year bracket.

Language

You points are based on your English ability as follows:

• Superior English (a score of at least 8 in each of the four components of the International English Langauage Testing System or IELTS test, or equivalent standard in a specified test) scores 20 points
• Proficient English (a score of at least 7 in each of the four components of the IELTS or equivalent standard in a specified test) scores 10 points.

Those with competent English do not receive points, but can apply for a visa as long as they meet the other threshold visa requirements.

Education

Points can only be awarded for the highest qualification attained. Currently, points are awarded as follows:

• 20 for doctorate degree
• 15 for a bachelor degree
• 10 for an Australian Diploma or trade qualification
• 10 for an award or qualification recognised by the assessing authority for a skilled occupation.

Training and study

You can also claim extra points if:

• You gain an Australian qualification as long as you gained it while living in Australia and studying full-time for at least 2 academic years, and it is closely related to your nominated skilled occupation.
• If you have completed an approved Professional Year in your nominated occupation (or a closely related skilled occupation)
•  If you satsify the Australia study requirement while studying in regional Australia.

Skilled work experience

Points are awarded for the length of employment in a skilled occupation, either in Australia or outside of Australia, providing:

• Your work experience is in your nominated occupation (or a closely related occupation)
• It comprises at least 20 hours employment per week.

Australian and overseas employment can be combined, and points can be claimed for both where applicable, however, the maximum number of points for this category is 20 points.

Partner’s skills

Finally, you may also qualify for points based on your partner's skills, provided he/she is included on your visa application and is not already an Australian citizen or permanent resident.

• There are also additional places in the Family Stream to meet growing demand.
• The 2012-13 Migration Program has up to 16,000 places reserved for the regional sponsored migration scheme (skilled).

Skill Stream

• The Skill Stream has increased by 3,400 places on 2011-12 program planning levels.
• The Skill Stream ceiling is set at 129 250 places.

Family Stream

• The Family Stream planning levels are set at 60,185 family places - an increase of 1,585 places from 2011-12 planning levels.

REGIONAL INITIATIVES
1. Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme places

• The federal government will continue to specifically allocate permanent visas for regional areas.
• The  Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme is expected to deliver up to 16,000 skilled migrants to regional areas in 2012-13, filling vacancies that employers cannot fill from the local labour force.

2. Priority processing

• Applicants for permanent regional migration visas will be afforded the highest level of processing priority.

3. Regional Engagement Strategy

• The government will continue to develop and implement an enhanced Regional Engagement Strategy to ensure that employers in regional areas know which migration programs can assist them to fill skilled vacancies, where there are no local or Australian people to fill the job.

CV checklist:

The following information is a guideline. We suggest that you use your own style, but always remember to keep the presentation professional and to the point.

• Use a simple program such as MS Word. Most Australian companies prefer CVs submitted electronically – and this will be critical when applying to Australian companies from overseas. Create your CV in a common program such as MS Word so it can be easily opened and read by recipients.
• Provide a brief background to UK companies. Remember that employers in Australia won’t be familiar with many UK companies. It is sometimes useful to provide a brief overview of your employer’s business including industry sector, what they do, and company size.
• Don't leave gaps in your CV. If you took a year out, carried out an interim assignment, or travelled for six months, say so, or potential employers may suspect the worst.
• Length is not a real issue - about four pages is the norm. Australian CVs tend to be more detailed than their UK counterparts. Don’t get caught up in trying to keep your CV down to two or three pages, however, do ensure the information you include is as succinct as possible.
• Include a link to your own website if you have one. If you have your own website profiling your work, include the URL on your CV; however, do not simply submit the URL address instead of a CV.
• Limit the amount of info per page. When formatting your CV, ensure there is plenty of white space. Don't put too much information on one page, or use graphics and flowery or small fonts that are difficult to read.
• Remember to spell check your CV! This is the first impression your potential employer will receive of you, so take time to get it right. If possible, ask someone to proofread your CV to check for any spelling, layout or typos – don’t rely on your spell check alone.
• Attach your CV to an email. Don't paste the text into your email program where it could be distorted.
• Don't attach supporting documents unless requested. These are generally not required in the first instance, although some online application forms do allow you to upload supporting documents. You will generally be asked for these prior to an interview.

Cover letter checklist

Cover letters are a unique selling tool when approaching a prospective employer directly, and are vitally important to applications sent by overseas candidates. This is your chance to capture the attention of an Australian employer and demonstrate the qualities that set you apart from other applicants:

• Keep it brief. Your cover letter should ideally not exceed one A4 page, well spaced.
• Tailor each cover letter to the job listing. Where possible, accounting point by point for each of the requirements listed by the employer and detailing how you are qualified to meet these requirements.
• Be clear and concise. Use strong verbs that demonstrate action and accomplishments, for example ‘organise’, and ‘supervise’.
• Find out the details of the contact person. Do a bit of research and if a name is not supplied, try to find out who the application is going to. Don't forget to include your own contact details (doublecheck for accuracy).
• Think about the structure. Your letter should include an introduction and identification of the position (for example their reference number used in the job advert), relevant qualifications and your current position, and a summary of how you meet their core skill set.
• Address the employer's essential criteria/core skill set. Identify your skills, experience and attributes that match the employer’s essential criteria. It can sometimes be helpful to use the same headings they have supplied, with a short sentence or two addressing each one. Look for keywords (e.g. team player, flexible, outgoing, dynamic) that reveal what attributes they are looking for, and show how you embody them. If you can demonstrate that you meet the essential criteria, you will greatly increase your chances of an interview.
• Proofread it properly! Have a trusted friend or colleague review both your CV and cover letter prior to submission. It's vital there are no errors if you want to be taken seriously.
