canadians need good workers not good communicators.....and you can never communicate like them in a short period of 3 months even if you speak for 8 hrs on the fone daily, unless you are smart enough to catch your own mistakes and rectify them on your own.....

Hi Neerajj

Why Canada? Every job in every country requires "good workers". But, how does your employer know you are a "good worker" unless you are able to "communicate" to the employers that your skills will match their requirements.

At the interview, if you are not able to "communicate" what you can contribute to the prospective employer, he is never going to give you the chance to prove that you are a "good worker".

I agree with you - unless you are willing to work on your mistakes and are smart enough to identify them, you cannot learn anything, why only "communication"?

I can only assume that people who want to succeed must have the above qualities.

I fully agree with lali.
Communication with proper english do add a cream to the milk.Initially one has to sell his skills to the interviewer. That can only be done if you have proper communication(ofcourse not hinglish)

That's why it is advisable to start practicing while you are in India.

I strongly support the need for good English & communication skills.

Is it still good enough for getting a job in your field & as per experience ?

I have been in Sales in India & worked there as a Sales Manager & then had my own business. Yet I am not able to get a job as a Sales Manager in Canada. I have started my life all over again as a Sales Associate albeit it is in computer sales which was my field in India too.

I had even got 8.5 band in IELTS test which is compulsory for Canadian immigration.

I know of people who don't know English properly yet they have a good job in Canada.

Rgds.

knowing english is one thing...and knowing your job another....some jobs require good communications in english, where as some jobs may not even require good communication skills but good technical skills a must to sustain yourself in the company...
