Hello everyone, today we are going to talk about how to find a job in Canada.
2-3 weeks ago, I posted a video about how to find a job in Canada.
Some of you asked me if it was easy to find a job in Canada, how to find a job quickly.
That's why we have a video on this topic today.
First, let's talk about 7 main ways to find a job in Canada.
So what are the 7 ways to find a job in Canada?
1. Networking
I will briefly explain how to build relationships for job seekers.
For example, if we go to school or hang out with a group of friends,
we can tell them which job seekers we are looking for,
so that if their company has a candidate and finds a suitable position for me,
they can let me know.
2. Networking events
Networking events are very popular in universities and universities.
These universities usually have links with companies that want to hire their students,
so this is a great opportunity for you to meet representatives of these companies
as well as your potential applicants.
So take advantage of these opportunities.
Of course, we have to be prepared.
For example, our clothes or resumes must be updated when we go to such events,
so that if they advertise any positions, we can apply.
This is also a great opportunity to impress applicants,
so that they can remember me, my face, my name.
At the same time, when you submit your resume, they will know that you are ready for a job.
If you are new to Vietnam but have not studied at universities,
there are many opportunities to network.
And now, because of COVID-19, most networking events are held online, virtual networking.
If you google the word online networking, you will see a lot of results.
And these are opportunities for you to practice networking,
as well as opportunities to meet applicants.
Although it is online, it is a very practical opportunity.
And the second way is also extremely popular,
that is, we find a job through the recruitment agency.
The good thing about this service is that applicants do not have to spend money to find a job for themselves,
but companies want to recruit employees, they have paid for this service
to find people they need for the positions they are looking for.
The way to find these services is very simple.
You just need to search for recruitment agency in Toronto or Vancouver,
in all the cities you live in,
you will have the results to be able to enter their websites,
see what positions they are looking for.
And the third way to find a job is to use job hunting apps.
One of the most popular websites or apps is LinkedIn.
And the point is that we have to invest a lot of time in creating this profile.
Why? This is our profile.
Applicants have never met us in real life,
as well as have not read our resume.
What they see in our account or profile is the personal images,
or the work that we have done,
and the way we write about our experiences,
as well as the dreams or skills that we can develop ourselves.
That's why we invest time to make our profile stand out and impress users.
In addition to apps like LinkedIn,
we have a lot of websites to find jobs,
such as Kijiji, Indeed.ca, Wowjobs.ca, etc.
And the fourth way is to check websites for certain jobs or professions.
For example, if you work in accounting,
you can search for the word accounting jobs website,
or websites for accounting jobs.
Or if you are an engineer, you can search for engineering jobs website.
Such similar words will give you a lot of results.
And if you go to the websites for this job,
you will see that there are many opportunities for us to apply.
And here is a very important point.
If you are still a student,
please go to the website of your school.
You will see that there is a list of jobs.
Companies often post jobs on the website of universities or universities
that want to hire students from this school.
Perhaps these companies and your school
have a close relationship,
and they want to hire students from these universities.
The fifth way is also very good.
That is to sign up for volunteer work,
or do an internship at different organizations and companies.
This method is especially good for those who have just graduated from school
but have no experience working,
or those who have just come from Vietnam,
or those who have just come here but have no work experience in Canada.
This is one of the most effective ways
to get a foot in the company you want to work for.
Why is that?
Because this is one of the ways you can collect work experience.
And after working for these organizations for a while,
if you see them hiring,
you can apply.
And they always prioritize volunteers
or co-op interns in their company for a while.
Very likely you will be interviewed and accepted.
So how do you get co-op or intern jobs?
Very simple.
If you are still a student,
you can check the website of the school on this issue.
There are many co-op or intern programs for students.
And for those who have just come from Vietnam,
it is also very easy.
Because if you search for co-op or internship job,
you will see that there are many results.
Then you can apply for these positions.
The sixth way is also very good.
Many people think it is not effective,
but in fact it is extremely effective.
It is self-introduction.
What does it mean?
For example, if you know the companies you want to work for,
but at this time they do not have a hiring or no vacancy,
what you can do is go to their website to get the phone number
or get the email of the HR department.
You can call to ask them, introduce yourself to them
and at the same time kindly ask them
if they have a suitable position for me,
they can call me.
And what we have to pay attention to is
we have to practice how to talk,
how to communicate,
as well as how to talk on the phone.
Why?
If the HR department talks to me on the phone,
we know how to impress them in this conversation
so they can remember our name and happily offer us the position we want
if they have a hiring in the future.
And if they don't pick up the phone or don't answer the phone,
it's okay.
We have a second way,
we email them the cover letter as well as the resume
and express our desire to work for their company.
The 7th way is also the last way in our video today.
This method is very effective for those who have just moved from Vietnam to Canada
because the Canadian government, the federal government or the government in the provinces
are all very concerned about immigrants,
especially newcomers,
to help them find jobs that are suitable for them
as well as the skills of an immigrant.
So how can we find non-profit organizations
that help newcomers to Canada?
It's very simple.
You can go to the website Canada.ca
and search with the word
Newcomer Services.
Then you will see a lot of results.
They can help you with learning problems,
finding a job,
as well as ways to overcome the so-called
homesickness,
or to make it easier for us to integrate with life in Canada.
Now I take an example.
The website of the Peel area
is one of the areas of the GTA Greater Toronto Area.
In this website,
you will see that
they offer you very useful services,
such as Job Search,
Job Placement Program,
or Ontario Bridge Training Program.
This is extremely good
if you are in Vietnam
and you want to do jobs,
such as electricity,
water,
and go to Canada
and want to have a similar job.
But in Canada,
you need to have a certificate
or a license
to do these jobs.
These organizations can introduce you to the Bridge Program,
which is a program that helps you get a certificate
or a license to work.
The last point I want to mention here
is patience and confidence.
Why is that?
Because many of us,
after a few interviews,
no company called
or offered us the job we wanted.
If we are in those situations,
there is nothing to be sad about,
nothing to worry about,
because this is very normal.
What we need to do
is to be happy and accept
when we don't get the job offer.
At the same time,
we don't lose confidence in ourselves.
And of course,
we need to improve ourselves every day.
Because sometimes companies
don't look for the most experienced people
or the most qualified people.
For example,
communication skills,
presentation skills,
or things that we can't see.
For example,
confidence,
optimism in the relationship between people.
In the future,
we will have videos
about important issues in detail.
For example,
how to prepare for an interview,
or how to show our best self
in interviews
and work experience in Canada.
