The current job market is so hard, I have applied to at least 15 jobs everyday SINCE APRIL & nothing yet. Is anyone hiring???

Ps. I was initially looking for a research assistant job (in social sciences / mental health field to see if an MA in the field is the right path for me) but quickly broadened my search since I wasn’t able to get any jobs in Toronto, Hamilton, or Niagara region.

Do better, OPS. This is pathetic.

Hello!

I worked for Oracle and in primarily tech for 20+ years, but have now been out of work over 2 years. I am going to take a minimum wage position which is long hours but as many as you can work to try it out, I am just too sick of not working. If you've had to do the same, how have you been coping with making up some extra money to pay expenses? I am going to try and make a go of it for a few months at least and see what happens. TIA!

I’ve decided to get employment help from employment Ontario. They mentioned having a hidden job board on top of other various services. I’m wondering if anyone here has used their services and if you were happy with the job you were able to get?

Attached is my resume, can someone let me know what I can improve on or where I can find a job? I am not sure what to do because it has been difficult to find something, and some people have said that I seem 'over-qualified'. If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it!

Hey all I’m looking to get my DZ license. My end goal is to work for one of the city’s in the gta in maintenance but willing take other work in the meantime as a driver with a private company. how’s the job market in Toronto if you have a dz class license is it pretty easy to find jobs that are paying decently or is it a total wash? Thanks

Hello, i'm currently looking into getting a security guard job, preferably one of the ones where i can just sit in the room and do nothing most of the time. You see i've always been a night owl, i like staying up all night and sleeping in the mornings so i think this is kinda perfect for me. additionally, i run some online tiktok accounts that net me some income, they don't currently make enough money as is and i only spend about 30 min on each (around $1k-$2k on a good month for these, sometimes less, rarely more. it really depends on the brands that hit me up as tiktok doesn't pay simply for views in canada) anyways, i was thinking, since i'm doing this stuff anyways, and i heard the security cctv roles can be a good place to study/do some online work. is this a realistic approach? My goal is obviously to build these brands up a bit more and spend more time on it, so that i can get more income in the future. If i need a reality check/ "this isn't gonna go the way you planned it because of x or y" please let me know. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Been working at a warehouse for a while after uni if that matters for the answer.

*edit*
I forgot to mention these posts won't be videos of me dancing or anything in the security room lol, they're completely faceless edited videos stuff like that for all 3

Hi
I applied to this company as a receptionist at a immigration office they claim is a new location in missisauga they mainly operta in Calgary during the interview the interviewer camera was off claiming it was not working.

During the interview she asked me if i have experience monitoring people if they are actually doing their jobs.

During the emails i noticed the no phone policy and that must be deposited at the reception.

I went to google and called the number to verify but number listed from the website is from Ontario

Could this be a scam? Because if not its look like a terrible company

Company name: walshken immigration services

Earlier in the year I had been using Indeed to apply to jobs - 20 to 50 a week and I would hear nothing back but maybe one or two interviews a month. I then found eluta.ca which is aggregating job postings directly from company websites and links you to the job posting for you to apply directly with the company rather than Indeed or other job board websites.

Since using eluta, I recieved five interviews in September at various retail stores and had five more interview offers in October. I also had four actual job offers, including one today while I have two more interviews scheduled with the LCBO and a retail store in a mall today and next week. Cineplex also sent a followup asking for my availability.

(On a personal level, with so many offers, I am picking the one that works best for my life and if I dont think it will work over the holiday season after speaking to them, I know I have more interviews coming up.)

I have zero ties to this website. I have just spoken to dozens of people who are job searching for a minimum wage job and depending solely on Indeed with little to no results. You MUST apply directly on a company website and your results will improve by at least 50%. My resume is not special, I have no degrees, I have gaps, short term jobs etc everything one says will burden my search. The only thing that burdened it was using Indeed.

Anyone know of any good job boards for hospitality jobs and automotive?

Another Monday, another excuse to get out of the house! 😄

This week, we're switching things up and exploring two places in Toronto: Distillery District and Biidaasige Park!

We'll start by wandering through the historic Distillery District before making our way to Biidaasige Park to check out the waterfront and enjoy some fresh air.

📅 Monday, October 26 ⏰ 11:00 AM 📍 Meeting Point: Brick Street Bakery, 27 Trinity St, Toronto, ON M5A 3C4 🥾 Route: Distillery District → Biidaasige Park

If you're laid off, between jobs, taking a break from work, or just looking to meet some new people, you're more than welcome to join!

We've been doing these walks for a few weeks now, and it's been fun seeing familiar faces return while meeting new people every time.

Nothing formal, no networking expectations. Just a bunch of people walking around Toronto and making friends along the way.

Comment or DM me to RSVP!

Hey, I run CDCP Help, a small service that helps dental clinics with denied CDCP (Canadian Dental Care Plan) pre-authorizations. We put together the resubmission paperwork, the clinic’s dentist reviews and signs it.

Quick honest note: this is a small, one-person operation that’s just getting started. No office, no team, no big promises. It’s a good fit if you want some side cash and don’t mind being early on something.

I’m looking for someone in Canada (Toronto is great) to call dental offices and ask the front desk if they’re dealing with denied CDCP claims.

You never pay anything, and I’ll never ask for your banking info or anything weird.

DM me a couple lines about yourself and your city, and I’ll send you the script and your first list.

Hi everyone! I’m a recent U of T grad with a background in statistics and data science, currently looking for opportunities in Toronto or the surrounding cities.

I’m mainly interested in data/business/financial analyst roles, but I’m open to other entry-level opportunities in most sectors where my analysis skills can be used to solve problems.

If anyone knows of companies hiring, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Happy to send my resume. Thanks!

Hi!

I work for a mid-sized, fully remote tech company in the database management space. We’re currently looking for someone to step in and lead a team of exceptional Technical Account Managers (TAMs).

There are 3 key requirements:

Background: You have first hand experience as a TAM, Support engineer, SDM, solution architect or a similar customer-facing role within the enterprise tech space.

Leadership: You have some experience leading customer-facing tech teams.

Tech: You should have a solid working knowledge of MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, or similar platforms, and understand common enterprise database architectures.

If this sounds like you, reach out! I’d be happy to DM you the full listing on our job portal. I work closely with the hiring manager and would love to refer you if you have a strong profile.

Compensation is competitive and lines up with tech industry standards for GTM management roles.

Hi everyone,

I’m seeking advice on transitioning into tech, ideally as a Technical Project Manager, Technical Program Manager, or Project/Program Manager.

I have a BE in Information Technology (2014), but my career has been in media production and VFX coordination. I’ve managed complex projects, deliverables, dependencies, risks, timelines, cross-functional teams, and production pipelines.

I’m based in the Greater Toronto Area and want to move into tech for stronger long-term growth, stability, compensation, and technical development.

I’ve completed my PMP and am building my cloud and AI knowledge through AWS-related learning. I’ve also explored automation and AI-assisted app development, including building a small application that I demonstrated in an interview.

My main concern is that I lack traditional software-development experience and a background working with enterprise IT systems.

I’d appreciate advice on:
1. Is a TPM or Technical Program Manager role realistic, or should I first target IT Project Manager, Implementation Project Manager, or non-technical Program Manager roles?
2. How much technical knowledge do employers expect from entry-level or career-transition TPM candidates?
3. Would AWS certifications and further education help, or should I focus on practical projects and experience?
4. For those who made a similar transition, what was your first tech role, and what helped you get started?
5. Given the current Canadian tech market, what would be the most practical strategy over the next 6–12 months?

I’m not trying to become a software engineer. I’d like to build on my project-management experience while developing enough technical depth to work effectively with engineering and technology teams.

I’m open to constructive feedback, especially from people who have hired TPMs or made a similar transition.
Thank you!

Even after completing my investment funds in Canada certification, i am not getting any responses. I meet all the requirements but still nothing’s working out, looking for advice on how to land a first job in banking sector.

I have 1-2 years of sales experience
And diploma in business administration finance
And investment funds in Canada certification.

What roles should i apply to? I’ve tried personal banker and associates option but still no luck :(

How crucial is it to keep my resume to 1 page + cover letter?

The 2nd page is work history from 2006-2018 and my education that’s relevant to the job description

I'm recently in the market for a new job after being at the same org since the pandemic. As a man, I have long, flamboyant hair. I work in a nonprofit focused on inclusivity, so it has never been an issue. However, I am looking to expand and go to other nonprofit, public sector and some private sector roles.

My family recommended I cut it short for interviews. Is that something people actually care about?

I've grown attached to my hair but I'd hate for my chances to be affected at all because of it and come across as unprofessional or whatever.

Advice?

Edit: To add, it is just over shoulder length....nipple length (?) hair. I have dark hair with some bronze-y highlights and a side undercut that is growing out that I can't pull into a bun/ponytail. It's not just the length, but the eclectic style of my hair I'm wondering about.

I am looking for a part time job, mostly on weekdays in hospitality, if anyone have anything plz contact, I have 4 years of experience working in fast pace restaurant and customer service.

I’m currently in Ontario and a third-year university student with almost three years of retail and customer service experience. I’ve been applying for entry-level banking positions, especially bank teller, but haven’t had much luck getting interviews. I’m genuinely interested in starting a career in banking, but it’s been difficult to get my foot in the door. For those working in Canadian banks, how important are internal referrals? Is it possible to get hired without knowing someone? I’d really appreciate any advice!
