Dear Rocky,
Since you have landed can you pl guide me whether we should also apply to placement consultants in respective province as they donot charge anything as per govt guide lines
...will it help
....have you tried this way to finding jobs
...are there any other angles involved like they donot entertain persons having qualif /exp other than canadian
....will they not take up our cases at all
...can they provide us any career counselling
....do they have any prescreening of the applicants like a informal interview
Can you pl throw some more light on the above topics and discuss them in detail...
Hi
I have not tried any consultants yet, but since I have relatives here so they are very helpful.
Here word of mouth works a lot. What I have seen is if you network with people, it helps a lot. I have given couple of interviews and lets see some might work, but how it happend is 1 I applied online for right kind of jobs and others is through some references and all as well, like they just send the resume internally with employee reference and the only difference it makes here is that, ok this employee knows this candidate that is it.
I want to join the Co-Op courses which helps you get free volunteer work exp and then help you find jobs and I am only talking about the once funded by CIC.
So be very cautious and there are many scam and frauds here as well who take your money. Remember, good consultants will never charge you even a penny only if you get a job they get money from the company like it works everywhere.
