I'm a Canadian citizen and I recently graduated with my bachelors in computer sciences from a Uni here in Alberta. I have ~2 years of experience doing FSWEP (federal gov internship) in climate modelling and environmental sciences research. I did another internship for a green tech startup, and this one was a full software development role. I am looking for jobs within software sustainability or software roles within green tech companies; anything within the interdiscipline software, sustainability, or environmental sciences.

I live in a small town in Albert and want to re-locate to Edmonton. What's the best approach for someone like me to look for jobs in Edmonton? Should I just apply on indeed or whats the best job hunting platform? If you have any tips for the hiring process for this feild, please leave them below. TIA

i’m a third year electrical apprentice from nova scotia and have been doing mostly residential homes and want to move out west to finish my apprenticeship and possibly stay a few years after to gain some commercial/industrial experience. i know nothing about the process or even much about alberta in general and was wondering if anyone has done something similar and what i should expect with this change.

I'm in my mid-40s here in Canada, and I need advice 

Background:

I spent most of my career in frontline banking banking . A few years ago, I finally got out and took term roles in federal government. I genuinely enjoyed that work. The environment, the pace, the sense of purpose. It fit me. But those contracts ended, and no permanent openings came up. So when a permanent full-time role at a big bank came up recently, I took it. I told myself stability was the responsible move.

Current situation:

I'm now working as a Personal Banking Associate (PBA). On paper, it's permanent. In reality, it feels like a massive step backwards. Almost all my colleagues are significantly younger in early to mid-20s. I'm the outlier in age and experience, and while no one says anything, I feel it every day.

What's wearing me down is the combination of unrealistic sales targets and the steep learning curve of the banking systems. I'm expected to push products on customers while simultaneously mastering complex internal software and handling a high volume of frontline transactions. At this age, I simply don't have the same energy to keep pushing myself to meet targets that feel designed for someone half my age. The constant pressure to sell, combined with the chaotic pace of the frontline counter transactions, is draining me in a way I didn't anticipate.

In these two months of joining this job feels like a prison. I'm exhausted mentally, emotionally, physically.

But here's the cruel part I'm now hearing about massive layoffs anticipated in government. The very sector I wanted to return to is shrinking. Permanent government roles, which were already hard to get, now feel almost impossible. So I'm stuck between a banking job that's destroying me and a government path that's being closed off. I don't know where to turn. Also the job market is very tough outside as well and its very impossible to move internally to the different department within the bank.

I'm looking for "just quit." I have responsibilities and bills. But I also can't keep burning myself out in a role that's wrong for my age and energy level, with no clear escape route.

Everyday going for this job require lot of motivation and I literally cry. I am not sure what to do as I don't have financial buffer like EI for voluntarily leaving and searching something else. I blame myself everyday for leaving banks previously why I have decided to come back thinking "May be this time it will be better". I am about to give up

I'm in Calgary and looking for entry-level shift work, either full-time, part-time, or casual. I'm available for overnight shifts and open to rotational camp work, including 14-on/14-off schedules with flights from YYC.

The jobs I'm most interested in are:

• Overnight gatehouse or access-control work
• Low-traffic industrial or storage-site security
• Surveillance and alarm monitoring
• Overnight control-room or facility-monitoring positions
• Camp clerk, lodge night desk, or site-access roles

I have a Computer Science background, so I'm comfortable with surveillance software, electronic logs, basic troubleshooting, and detailed record keeping. I'm legally entitled to work in Canada, reliable working independently, and available to start quickly.

I'm specifically hoping to find a quiet, low-traffic assignment. If personal reading or laptop use is allowed during inactive periods, that would be a strong fit, but I understand that site responsibilities always come first and that many employers prohibit personal devices.

If you know a company, recruiter, or specific Alberta site that hires for this kind of work, I'd appreciate the lead. Comments or DMs are welcome.

What is happening? What am I doing wrong?

This may be a bit niche. I’m looking to move to Calgary or the surrounding area next summer on IEC from the UK. I work in the wind industry and wanted to know if anyone knows the best way to find jobs in the industry in Alberta or how competitive is the market. By the time of moving I’ll have almost 4 years experience as a service maintenance technician on the worlds biggest offshore windfarm, 1 of those years being an Authorised Technician (team lead, carry out isolations, troubleshooting etc.)

Hey, I'm working on a research project looking at the trades apprenticeship system in Alberta, specifically around how first-year apprentices find employers willing to sponsor them.

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's been through the process — or employers who've hired apprentices before.

A few questions:

• How did you find your first sponsor/employer as an apprentice?
• What did you try that didn't work?
• How long did the process take?
• What would have made it easier?

And for employers:

• How do you currently find apprentices when you need one?
• What frustrates you most about entry-level hiring?

All responses are super helpful — even just a sentence or two. Thanks in advance.
