Also, not getting an engineer job doesn't mean you are doomed to work in McD's. Why not try for a job as a draftsman? It's more closely related to engineering than McD's, counts more as related experience and it puts food on the table while you look for something better. I have met employers who have said that they would rather hire someone who has been doing something, even if it's not in their field rather than someone who has been unemployed for a long time.

Hi qorax ,

I agree that taking up ANY job starts your income , But how does it add to your experience . I have 15 years experience as a engineer in Oil & gas and if i start working in a warehouse here , how will that add to my experience. The employers here in canada will ask me to provide them with canadain work experience in Engineering field , work experience in mcdonalds/warehouuse will not be treated as canadian work experience for a engineering job.
Presently things are so bad that even after passing the canadian licencing exams for engineer i am unable even to get a single interview call!
I am moving to alberta in the hope that i can find something.
I dont mean to offend/discourage anyone , but THINGS ARE BAD here.

Leon ,

How does edmonton compare with calgary. Which city has more field jobs , someone told me that calgary has all the offices and most of the field jobs are in edmonton or up north. Is that right.


Leon and qorax , you have guided me thru the process , i am thankful to you seniors for helping
