Hi, if you are having a technical job then chances are that there should be a licensed engineer working there. You have to approach him and ask if he is ready to supervise you. If the company you work for does not have an engineer, it’s totally fine. You can find an engineer from outside of the company. There is a list of supervisors who are willing to supervise and could be found on OIQ website. You can email them and ask if they are okay to supervise you.

Hi, it depends on which field you would want to go into. You can check median salaries according to the job positions on Glassdoor website.

@@thefrenchdesi dude sorry i wanted to wrote that my university fees is 10.500 euro which is alot i just wanted to know do you think i can afford it by doing part time jobs including my other charges like rent food etc

@@jazielmirza As an international student, you are allowed to do 20 hours of work every week and keeping the basic pay in mind, you can get around 1200$ every month. Now during summers you can work full time and certainly cover up your fees. It also depends on your spending habits and lifestyle you prefer. Generally speaking, you can cover up to 50-60% of fees (lets say 30k CAD for entire program) over the course of 2 years if you live well below your means and save a big chunk towards your tuition.

@@thefrenchdesi Thanks dude i hope i can do that and cover up my fees

Hi Rahul I am good and hope you are too! I did not have any friends who studied civil engineering in Concordia. But generally speaking, yes Concordia is a good university for engineering as compared to other universities. I personally found my masters program to be challenging and rewarding at the same time. Civil engineering/construction jobs are always in demand but in Quebec, you will really need to learn French if you wish to practice civil engineering here. Hope this helps. All the best :)

@@thefrenchdesi Thanks a lot for your valuable suggestions 🫡

Hi, the time required to learn French depends on every individual. Just to give you my example as a reference, I was a full time student in French classes and it took me around 9-10 months to reach C1 level. I wasn’t working anywhere at that time. All I did for 9 months was solely learning French. Job opportunities wise, it will obviously give you the edge over others and will able to find one easily.

Hi Hardev, if this course helps you to get the title of CPA then yes it is definitely worth it. Chartered accountant is a very niche and good category job anywhere in Canada. Just make sure to validate the course is legit and not just a made up course. I have seen that colleges come up with random courses just to fill international seats, so please check each and every detail before coming. All the best!

Hi Rahul according to Google, yes! I am not sure about the purpose of your question though.

@@thefrenchdesi Basically I have come across a post that civil engineers are highly in demand in provinces like QC, AL, NL and BC

@@rahulminhas572 Yea construction is always in demand but when it comes to Quebec, you would need to be completely bilingual to work because construction workers do not understand a word in English so if you are planning to come here then just be prepared to master French.

@@thefrenchdesi Yeah, I understand. I am very eager and excited to get myself immersed into a new culture. I feel like if I am switching countries, It should feel like I am in a different country and not just all Indians. This definitely includes making friendships with native Montreal people. By the way, are people good in Montreal? Do they help if we try to initiate a conversation in French?

Hello, what type of job are talking about? Part time or full time corporate job? I would suggest not to rush like this as you will eventually find opportunities when you land here. I would also like to remind that yes getting a job could be stressful but at the same time don’t forget to explore the city in itself :)

@@thefrenchdesi i am talking about part time(sorry forget to mention 😅

@@hassanshakeel3199 I would say don't stress too much about it since you are even not in the country. You will be able to find one once you come here :)

Hi Rahul thank you I really appreciate your comment. Yes you get paid for learning French depending upon if you are enrolled full time or part time. I have made a separate video on French classes.

@@thefrenchdesi Thanks a lot bro.

Which documents?

Hello if you have already received B2 certificate in French then you should go for it. I dont really think that experience matters here because it’s graduate program stream. But showing experience would be much beneficial than showing nothing. All the best!

Hi Nirav to get your CPI you do not need to show French requirements. Although you can give the French exam from OQLF side by side but it is not mandatory for CPI. And you will have to give French exams conducted by OQLF only. No other French test results would be accounted.

Hi Nirav, no French is needed for CPI. You will need that when you get the actual license.

Hi, I have never consulted any immigration agent so I cannot tell you whom should be trusted. But I can recommend ParulTV, you can check out www.parul.tv/immigration. Again, it’s just a recommendation and I had no personal experience with him. Hope this helps!

Hello, yes I believe majority of the colleges has started implementing this rule after bill 96 was passed in Quebec. This is not true if you are enrolled in university yet (McGill or Concordia). The universities have contested this decision and the rule is not applied as of now until a decision comes from the court.

Yes you need at least B1 level of written French and B2 of speaking but if you read the report on levels that qualify as level 5,6 and so on, it is very lengthy and does not give a clear answer on which level it corresponds to TEFAQ or TEF. Hence I would suggest to aim for B2 in both the modules to be on a safer side.

​@@thefrenchdesiwhat is B2? I'm a skilled worker in Lanaudière region 3 mos now i want to apply PR ASAP because I'm 40 y/o High school only

@@kinjomuramasa1114 when you give French language test, you are evaluated on various levels according to your proficiency. There are 6 levels (A1,A2,B1,B2,C1 and C2) C being advanced. In order to apply for PR through Quebec PNP, you need to achieve at least B2 level of French on TEFAF or TEF exams.

Hi Gilbert, yes your French certificate from MIFI would be valid for PR purposes.

I just read about this.. if I have this certificate from MIFI.. so i dont need to take exam for TEF?

@@gitnangsilanganlife9080 no if you have MIFI certificate of at least level 8 then you can show that and are not required to take TEF or TEFAQ.

Hello thank you for your comment. If you apply through Quebec graduate stream, your study program will have to be in French (75% of the courses) regardless of your mother tongue being French. You will also have to show spoken (production orale) and written (production écrit). It will be easy for you since you speak French but just for the sake of formality, you will have to give the exams. Hope this helps! Also I love Morocco, much love :)

Hi Chris thank you for your comment. Learning French language outside Quebec is beneficial in terms of having job opportunities in Quebec. In terms of adding points to your PR, you will have to give the exams that are outlined by the government of Quebec (TEFAQ, TEF being few of them). Here’s a list of exams for which you will be able to add points to your PR www.quebec.ca/en/immigration/permanent/skilled-workers/quebec-experience-program/selection-conditions/knowledge-french. You can find them under the option “Attestations of French test results or diplomas”. Hope this helps!

@@thefrenchdesi So I could learn French before moving to Canada and it’s just that I have to write and pass TEFAQ examination once I reach Quebec yes?

@@chris-rg7kc yes correct. If you are confident you can also give TEF outside Canada. The scores are valid for 2 years I believe.

Hey Chris thank you for your support! I really appreciate that. 1+1 =2 hold the same in both French and English languages. Likewise, if you study a program in either language would be fine as long as you are getting the right knowledge. If you study your program in French, you will get the advantage to apply your PR through Quebec Graduate Stream and also in terms of job opportunities, you would be equipped with good French vocabulary. Other than that it does not really matter if you study in French or English. But I would suggest that if you have a good command in French, then go for French language program as you will benefit it from it a lot during your PR application.

@@thefrenchdesi Thank you so much for the reply.

Hello thank you for your comment. Welcome to Quebec :) The best stream for you to apply would be PEQ temporary foreign worker program. First of all please check if your job falls under the eligibility requirements. I think since you are the manager, it should be eligible but please validate online on government’s website. You will need to work at least 24 months in order to submit your application for this program. You won’t be eligible before that and you will need to demonstrate at least B2 level of spoken French. Hope this helps!

@@thefrenchdesi I speak franch and I am from France n I am franch citizen just come here to work n how long after I can apply Pr that it?

Thank you for your comment. You should be fine with your current level of French knowledge. As for the 36-month requirement, you don’t need to wait. Your degree just needs to have been obtained within 36 months of submitting your application, so you can go ahead and submit it right away.

Thank you Vishwa!

Hello, both the exams have different format and purposes. According to me OQLF is more challenging than TEFAQ.

Yes that’s correct.

I don’t know about programs that LaSalle offers. I can tell that this college is good in terms of reputation as compared to other colleges. If you are looking for a masters degree, I would strongly recommend to aim for university than a college. Universities are far more ahead and provide quality education than colleges. Working conditions are normal here. Like elsewhere, it can take a little bit of more time to find a part time job but with efforts, you will be able to find opportunities.

Hello, since you already have 1.5 years of experience I would say if you speak French then temporary foreign worker program would be best for you. This requires you to have at least 2 years of work experience in Quebec so by the time you complete your 2 years, you can learn French. You can read more about this program here: www.quebec.ca/en/immigration/permanent/skilled-workers/quebec-experience-program/selection-conditions/temporary-workers

@@thefrenchdesi Thanks Bhai 🙏 Keep in touch if you are still in Montreal/Quebec.

Hey I have mentioned my LinkedIn and Instagram in description.

Hi, you can always find a job if you put in the effort and work. I would say that if you speak French then you can easily find a job in less time as compared to other candidates.
