Flying for a Canadian airline???

[pgcfii2002]

Just wondering what would be involved for a American citizen to apply for a job at a Canadian major/regional???

That will help you with converting your license to a Canadian one if you want. I'm not sure what it takes, or if the Canadians interview foreigners or not.

Having gone through the process in the past (it may not be totally current) many years ago, I can pass on my experience. To get "permanent" employment in Canada you must be a legal resident. To be hired as a foreigner, you must be sponsored by the employer and they must not be able to find a qualified Canadian. And they are quite strict about these requirements.

Imagine that.... ensuring there are no qualified citizens looking for work before allowing a non-citizen access to the job.. brilliant.....
