How To Find a Job in Canada
As a newcomer to this country, perhaps the first thing you need to know is how to find a job in Canada. It does sound easy, after all, you have overcome all the hurdles of the immigration process. How hard can it be to find a job?
Well, based on research, many immigrants who come to live and work in Canada are not able to find a position in their industry right away. Most of them are forced to settle for odd jobs in order to make a living and provide for their families. Many factors bring about a successful job search. If you would like to be in the same industry or job function that you had in your previous place of residence, you may need to work much harder than usual.
In my work in recruitment for the last 10 years, I have worked with hundreds of immigrants. I have met many who had to start their lives in Canada working at jobs they hate! Some of them recognize that there is a need to change their attitude, improve their skills and come up with a strategy in order to find a job in Canada that they actually love.
Back to Basics
The most basic steps that you need to follow are listed below —
- Research employers you wish to work for. …
