Welcome to Canada. What part of Canada are you based in?

Checkout Robert Ralf recruiters, IT weapons and Hays.ca as I highly recommend them for IT. Or if you want to get into software sales and base income is a flat rate $60k starting and commission is like 100k+ if you hit your monthly targets their called Salesforce

Nice same place as me. Sometimes recruiters are really bad are contacting you. I just phone them up and charm them on the phone it really helps.

Here is the address to the company http://www.salesforce.com/ca/company/careers/

I received a phone call from them 3 weeks ago offering me a interview for a position as a Sales Engineer. I have a friend that works there and the pay is pretty decent. I have minimal sales experience and they fully train you

Many opportunities present themselves in the field of Network/ Telecom Engineering - Speaking on behalf of Toronto. Most contracts have good pay , they require Canadian Exp and Networking Certifications.

Indeed , and this is what I had to battle with when I first landed in Canada. I had to set my expectation to just get into the market , regardless of position and title as long as it is within my field of work. Once I was in, I was able to gain the experience for 6 months to a year and then look for different opportunities.
