You need job offer validated by HRDC first and then you must apply for
proper Work Permit.

No,

Post-Graduation Work Permits:

Some graduating students may apply to work in Canada for up to a year after
graduation. The following conditions apply:

a.. You must be engaged in full-time studies at a university, community
college, CEGEP, publicly funded trade/technical school or at a private
institution authorized by provincial statute to confer degrees;
b.. You must have a job offer from an employer for a job that is related
to your studies (however, the job offer does NOT require HRDC confirmation);
c.. You must apply for a Work Permit within 90 days of graduation from
your college or university;
d.. You must have a valid Study Permit when you apply for the Work Permit.
