5: Make Your Application Easy for a Canadian Employer to Understand
Sometimes, the problem is not that there are no jobs.
The problem is that an applicant’s CV does not clearly show why they are a good match.
So, When applying, focus on the skills the employer is actually looking for.
Your application should clearly show:
* Your relevant work experience
* Your practical skills
* Your qualifications or certifications
* Your achievements
* Your language abilities, where relevant
Avoid sending exactly the same CV to every employer.
If you are applying for a cook position, your CV should highlight your kitchen experience.
If you are applying as a welder, focus on welding experience, equipment, certifications, and the type of work you have done.
Make it easy for the employer to see where you fit.
