Answer 1

At http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC-CNP/app/inde... you can search for your job title and get possible matches with a NOC code.

Say if you punch in social worker, you get two possible matches, 4152 and 4212

On the NOC matrix, you can see what those numbers mean: http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC-CNP/docs/Mat...

The first number, 4, indicates job category 4.  The second number indicates the skill level.  The 2nd number 0 means skill level 0.  The 2nd number being 1 means skill level A, the 2nd number being 2 means skill level B, the 2nd number being 4 means skill level C and the 2nd number being 6 means skill level D.

You need skill level 0, A or B to classify as a skilled worker.  If you are skill level C or D, you can still get a job offer and work permit but you would not be able to apply for permanent residency.
