Hi FilCad,
Yes,I am a nurse here. I met few Filipinos here who work as an Accountant and I have few friends working in the Payroll System somewhere in Dartmouth area.
So, I guess there's few job opportunities for you in the Province. The economy just started to keep up right this year because Halifax Nova Scotia got the job contract for building new ships in Canadian Navy. The name of the project is Ship Starts Here.
As for Nova Scotia in general, I love it here,it's not a very big city like Toronto,Montreal or Vancouver but I like it that way.
I left United Kingdom to come over in Canada but one of the few things I don't like is Winter Cold Weather.
The people here are very friendly and helpful,and there are many Filipinos here too, I am from Bohol Phils. myself. The province is surrounded by water/sea(Atlantic Ocean) and it is considered one of the best cities in Canada.
Goodluck in your application!Godbless
Hi Carlaganda,
It is nice to see that there is someone in this forum that is already residing in Nova Scotia and giving some insights on life and career there. This is the statement I love to read and looking for long back in this forum about life in Nova Scotia from someone who actually have an experience living in there. I've done some research about NS and seems that few job opportunities are available in there and my doubts support what I have read from you. What was the good thing is the future outlook of NS to attract more investors to invest in their territory and create job opportunities to the people. I am very optimistic into it and sure that this will be a great development in NS. Besides the "Ship starts here project", NS also signed contracts after bidding with some of the oil and gas players to explore and drill deep water in their ocean (offshore) for possible oil discoveries. This means it will create further job opportunities. I am hoping that I can be there someday to start a new life.
Thank you Carlaganda for sharing insights, experiences, and advices in this forum. It is a great help for us in this forum seeking for an opportunity to live and work in Canada.
Hoping for your continuous sharing efforts in this forum.
Regards,
