    Brutal Winter and a jobless immigrant family

    Thanks Vish, It's just sad to see so many people have no success in Canada once they land here. If I went by the blogs and what I've been reading it would make me miserable and hopeless in landing a success in Canada. That's a really good posting you made and I'm really glad for you as well...

    Canadian Experience

    Canadian Experience you ask? I came to this country also thinking that I need Canadian experience and you know what. It's nonsense because they honestly don't care if you have Canadian experience or not as long as you have experience and you can perform the job perfectly well that's all that...

    Paid Internships Through Career Edge

    I agree but you can negotiate something with CareerEdge as they barely took any tax from me and I made 1.1k Bi-weekly which added upto 2.2k a month. You really make 2.5k a month over the 6 month period but one month you get paid 3 times.

    Advice for job offer negotiation

    If I'm honest with you your asking for too much specially that you have not even started the job yet. If it was to do with the salary then fine. I don't think you should talk about hours until you are settled in your position. The lunch you might be able to do but I would advice you to speak to...

    Paid Internships Through Career Edge

    Exactly and it's such a great way to get in and start networking. The salary is not great but it's the experience and opportunities which arises after that. I don't see why anyone would avoid this unless they need high income then I would not recommend it.

    My Experience with landing a job with CareerEdge

    Thank you :) If I was you I would not waste my time in applying because they won't really care about your status and they would only be interested if you was already in the country with your PR. If the job is for July 2015 and your sure you will have it before then why not just wait?

    looking for a permit work in canada

    Well in the United Kingdom you can apply for a "Work Visa" which is valued for a year and you can extend it for another year if you did not know. Yes it might not be a valid option in Morocco but I'm putting it out there for anyone who did not know. And you don't need a job offer for a work permit!
