I am new grad from civil engineering graduate program in Canada recently and have hold another MS degrees in construction management and urban planning when I was previously studying in US.

I saw some job descriptions mentioning that they require 2-3 YOE for entry level jobs or new grad roles, which I am not pretty sure why. PS: I have had 0 YOE， but I have the work authorization currently in Canada. Any advices would be appreciated.
