JOB SEARCH
The NOC is a system used by the Government of Canada to classify jobs (occupations). Jobs are grouped based on the type of work a person does and the types of job duties.
Many of Canada’s immigration programs use it to decide if a job, or type of work experience, is valid for that program’s criteria. For instance, if a person wants to apply as a skilled worker they should check the NOC to see which jobs are considered “skilled” (NOC Skill Type 0 or Skill Level A or B).
The job information is broken down into a number of groups. For immigration purposes, the main groups are:
-
Skill Type 0 (zero) – management jobs.
-
examples: restaurant managers, mine managers, shore captains (fishing)
-
-
Skill Level A — professional jobs. People usually need a degree from a university for these jobs.
-
examples: doctors, dentists, architects
-
-
Skill Level B — technical jobs and skilled trades. People usually need a college diploma or to train as an apprentice to do these jobs.
-
examples: chefs, electricians, plumbers
-
-
Skill Level C — intermediate jobs. These jobs usually need high school and/or job-specific training.
-
examples: long-haul truck drivers, butchers, food and beverage servers
-
-
Skill Level D — labour jobs. On-the-job training is usually given.
-
examples: cleaning staff, oil field workers, fruit pickers
-
If your job is skill level C or D;

you may be able to come to Canada as a provincial nominee (all skill types/levels),
-
you may be able to work here for up to two years.
