Most positions that millennials are applying for are tech or management related and tend to be high-paying. We’ve listed our top 10 occupations for millennials that are in demand in Canada in 2019, along with the respective expected salaries, below.

Best Ways To Get There

The best way to immigrate is to find a province where your occupation and qualifications are in demand. 11 out of the 13 Canadian provinces and territories have their own Provincial Nominee Program, most of which have streams that are linked to the Express Entry (EE) System. The EE system was created in 2015 to fast-track and simplify the Canadian immigration process, reducing processing time to between 4 and 6 months.

Selecting a province is imperative as Express Entry draws often target certain occupations when selecting applicants to issue Invitations To Apply (ITAs) for permanent residency. For instance, Ontario recently issued 997 ITAs to applicants in these 10 targeted occupations in it’s latest Express Entry draw on August 15, 2019.

• Other administrative services managers
• Corporate sales managers
• Professional occupations in business management consulting
• Advertising, marketing and public relations managers
• Retail and wholesale trade managers
• Financial auditors and accountants
• Registered nurses and registered psychiatric nurses
• Financial managers
• Other financial officers
• Managers in customer and personal services.

Once you have selected a province, create an online Express Entry profile as most Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) will select suitable candidates, who have expressed interest in the province, from Express Entry Draw pools, which generally take place every 2 weeks. The added bonus of receiving a PNP is that you will receive an extra 600 points to add to your Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score.

The likelihood of you being invited to apply for permanent residence in Canada depends on your CRS score, a points-based system based on factors such as your age, qualifications, work experience and job offer (if applicable). There are various ways to improve your CRS score, which can be found here.
