I qualified via OINP so I am thinking of being either in Mississauga/Etobicoke (GTA) or Waterloo/Kitchener/Cambridge.Awesome! Which province/city are you planning for? What is your job situation like, if you are comfortable sharing?
I'm a UX Designer too, yet to find a job. Planning for Toronto or neighbouring areas.
Been networking a little with people on LinkedIn but everyone suggested not to approach for a job unless I have a date when I can be available to join.
Now I am planning to start talking to folks about prospective job openings that I can apply for.
Try this website called Adplist. You can network with designers there and then try to get references for jobs. Having a job alert on LinkedIn is also a great way to keep track of jobs.
And ofcourse have a good portfolio/resume.
All the best man.
