Most eligible experts might have tried to suggest to you, but I think your request to receive only expert, sincere, and serious responses might have discouraged them from replying. In any case, to keep it brief, since you are seeking serious and sincere responses before moving abroad, here are a few things you should consider initially, Ms. Sanjana:
1. If possible, try to acquire deep and comprehensive knowledge of your subject.
2. Gain exposure by working in an HR job in India.
3. Ensure you have a good understanding of Indian HR principles, rules, regulations, acts such as the Factories Act, Compensation, P.F., ESI, Grievances, Industrial Relations, Organizational Behavior, and all other major departments and sections related to HR profiles.
4. If you have decided to move to Canada, ensure you have a thorough understanding of Canada's HR structure, policies, and the major sections mentioned above to familiarize yourself and ease the transition. This knowledge will also aid you in interviews and make the selection process smoother for you.
5. Familiarize yourself with the country's atmosphere, environment, industrial landscape, types of major industries, codes of conduct, labor laws, unions, and labor types.
6. Consider taking special linguistic classes to address any potential MTI (Mother Tongue Influence) issues.
7. Develop a specific career plan for yourself, whether you plan to join a placement company or an industry as an HR professional in Canada. This self-declaration will boost your confidence and clarify your career goals.
8. If you are committed to working in Canada, research and compile a list of industrial belts, cities, types of industries, and important information about potential employers.
9. Look for companies in Canada with Indian origins or Indian leadership. Submit your updated CV showcasing your competencies, skills, knowledge, and achievements. Applying to such companies may increase your chances of receiving interview calls.
10. Consider enrolling in short-term online courses that can enhance your skills and make you more attractive to Canadian companies during interviews.
In addition to the above, familiarize yourself with the geographical aspects of the country, the locations where you wish to work, the expected salary range, and work on your negotiation skills. Present yourself as an ideal candidate for Canada through effective communication, language proficiency, positive attitude, knowledge, skills, and genuine interest.
I am confident that you will secure your dream job and not just dream but see it turn into reality one day.
Best Wishes.
