Workshop Description:
Did you know that 50-70% of job openings in Canada are not posted? Finding jobs in this “hidden job market” requires networking skills and good contacts. But how do you make those contacts if you aren’t currently in the workforce or if you are new to Canada?
This workshop will show you proven ways find job opportunities that match your program of study and your skills. Even if you have little or no work experience in Canada, you can still use these practical strategies to help you move forward with confidence.
Join this workshop to learn:
Whether you're looking for part-time work now or planning your career after graduation, this workshop will help you take the next step with clarity and confidence.
Who should attend this workshop? International students ready to look for work in their field of study post-graduation, or those who want to start building labour market connections in Canada in preparation for a new career.
COACHING: If you attend this workshop until the end, you can sign up for free career coaching. The next coaching date after this workshop will be Tuesday, Mar 10, 2026 - 6pm and 7pm. Instructions to sign up for coaching are emailed after the workshop.
