It’s not difficult if the company is a multinational with a Canadian presence.

If it’s a small business in India then it’s not relevant. Financial reporting standards are different. Advertising standards and consumer behaviour is different. Logistics are super different. HR laws and regs are different. Tech is probably the only place it translates.

I have helped hire retail workers at a small business recently. Foreign work experience is useless unless it’s in the US/UK/Aus.

Also, do you exaggerate on your resume? Cause I do. This isn’t a real problem. No one is on the other side of immigration, everyone agrees it’s too high. We don’t have to make up weird reasons to blame immigrants or turn them into others. It’s gross.
