Employment advice.
To whom it may concern:
Firstly I would like to thank you for reading my post. I am a professional 26 year old British male who currently works as an IT operations manager for a London based IT firm. I have been granted a one year working visa which I intend on converting to a Conjugal partner visa upon my arrival in Canada, I am able to do this due to my girlfriend being Canadian. I have over four years experience in the industry and have a bachelors degree. I have the following questions: 1) Am I likely to find work relatively quickly? 2) Will I be paid less due to my immigrant status? 3) Is Toronto a good place to start? (This is our first choice as her family living in the GTA) Thanking you in advance. Kind regards, Alfie Arrowsmith |
Hi Alfie,
Toronto is a good place to look for a job in the IT industry. I don't think you will be paid less because you are a recent immigrant. The lack of "Canadian experience" may be a reason for some recruiters to try to lowball you, so be aware of it. Try to contact recruiting agencies - most of the IT jobs go through them. because you are coming from England I have to warn you not to expect many, if any returned calls and emails. For some reason here recruiters think that a common courtesy of returning phone call is not necessary unless they can profit from you. Good luck!;) |
Hi Tsveta,
Thank you very much for your reply! Kind regards, Alfie |
