You cannot be offered a job unless there are no Canadians or permanent residents who can take that job. An employer would have to do a wide search to prove that you are the only person who could do the job. Here's the immigration information:

I think it depends where you're from. I'm English and had to apply while I was in England.
3 :
You have to apply at the Canadian Embassy, in the country that you are a citizen of . Here is the general information website for Immigration to Canada. Read it carefully, as we have a number of different types of applications, depending on your skills, and your education levels. You can apply for a work visa that is usually for one or two years duration. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/index.asp Jim b. Toronto.

Please, forget it. There are no jobs for video editors. We already have hundreds of thousands of unemployed Canadians some of whom are also film editors. What few jobs there may be out there won't go to foreigners but to a qualified Canadian. No employer will hire you - we have more than enough unemployed film editors. My advice for you would be to just, please, stay in Mumbai until the economy improves here in Canada - in, say 3-5 years' time. Then, if you still think you can make in Canada, apply to immigrate and enjoy the fabulously long line up of other applicants who also want to come to Canada. We are currently working through close to one million applications and, as Canada only accepts about 250,000 qualified immigrants each year, I think you can see how long it would take for you. Canada accepts professionals in fields like medicine, nursing, engineering or qualified tradespeople - not film editors. Sorry, you're outta luck there.

To work in the US, the following things must occur. First: There must be corporate sponsorship (which means a US based or US-owned company is hring your Canadian friend). To do so, they must first post the position (nationally), and prove to the US government that there are no qualified US citizens to handle the job. (This typically means having it up for at least 6 months, by the way ... and receiving NO qualified applicants). Then the company has to open up the application process to international applicants. Second: Your firend will have to throw his/her name and skills into the international application pot and hope that they come out on top. They will have to submit transcripts, resumes, reference letters, and a formal job application to the company in question. Third: Once an individual is chosen, the company must apply for the incoming individual's work visa (my guess is that they'll use the TN classification if they choose your Canadian friend, since the H1B status is a multi-year visa and much harder to obtain). The company will have to prove they have done due diligence in determining that the individual's academic standing meets or exceeds comparable US standards. They also need to prove that s/he has the experience and skills associated with the position. THEN they have to write a letter, ofering the job to the individual - including salary, length of employment, and all the background stuff above. Fourth: Now your friend has to bring all his/her documentation to the point-of-entry to obtain their visa (which is actually a stamp on their I-94). Part of their documentation MUST be a passport that is valid for at least 6 months beyond the end of the employment period stated in the employer's letter. If all the steps are followed correctly, the total time between first advertising the position to his entering the country will be a minimum of 6 months ... more likely on the order of a full year. (When I finally got to the US, the original job opening was first advertised internationally in 1998 ... I successfully obtained the position in the fall of 2004 - mostly due to US citizens applying, and being rejected as unsuitable every couple of months).
