Good luck with the test and job search!
I haven't looked into agency so far. I have a job right now, so I'm not "desperate" to that extent I need a job, but just applying whatever I see that catches my attention so far as I want to diversify my work experience.

Yeah, my buddy that works for a crown corporation that is a CMA told me, the trend nowadays is towards it's who you know, not so much your resume experience/education. Getting in is the hard part, once you are in, then you still will need to show them your skills/assets, no walk in the park once you are in.
