How likely is it for a canadian employer to provide job offer and sponsor work permit without a PR? I have heard chances are slim due to high volume of PR holders.

Unless you have a very unique nd highly specialized skillet that is not easily available in the market, it is going to be very very difficult. There are 300K people coming in on PR in an increasingly competitive job market so very little incentive for companies to invest the time and money in sponsoring someone from outside Canada.

Best bet is to try internal transfer. On top of the visa hassle, Canadian companies for some reason put a lot of emphasis on Canadian degree / Canadian experience (and no US is not Canada).
Good luck tho!!

Having worked on both sides and as a Canadian it’s honestly such bs to have that mindset.

Planning on going back to home country and also getting the visa issuance in Dec. Similar experience, anyone? Appreciate your input.
