Are you currently in South Africa or in Canada? It's very difficult to get a job from outside Canada. First get the PR then look for a job.

I am currently in South Africa. Yes I have sent hundreds of applications but nobody seems to want to sponsor visas in Canada. I have also applied for PR but my points are rather low - I thought that getting a job would boost my PR score but it's kinda like a catch 22 as I need to be there in order to get the job!
Get a job in South Africa and work on increasing your points. Also, look into provincial nomination - it can boost your points alot.
Thanks man! Already employed in SA. Hope to see you in Canada :)
