Canadian Jobs Available!
Immigration Canada created the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP) program because employers in 10 Canadian communities can’t fill jobs in their towns. Half of those towns are located in Ontario. These Ontario towns have the most positions available under the RNIP. Ontario is the economic engine of Canada and has 39% of Canada’s population.
Before the COVID19 pandemic these employers had jobs available for foreigners. Nothing has changed, the jobs are still available. COVID19 has barely affected the 5 Ontario towns. Most infections in Ontario were in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) as well Windsor-Essex area in SW Ontario amongst migrant farm workers.
Thunder Bay, Ontario has the highest population amongst these RNIP towns and several have a population of approximately 70,000. Not one of these towns have an NHL, NBA, MLB, MLS, CFL franchise. There is no Opera Houses or large Theater Productions to enjoy while living there. Educating yourself about the town you are considering moving to will help you when you’re invited for an interview.
Employers do not want to read lengthy long winded CV/Resumes. Get advice on how to improve your resume to what is a Canadian standard. Sometimes it is that little thing that makes the difference between being overlooked or called for an interview. Keep your resume clear and concise based on the position you are seeking. Look for positions in local newspapers or on free Canadian job posting sites. Small town employers are unwilling to post positions on major job seach engines which cost them money and gets them thousands of resumes to review.
Accomodation; The average one-bedroom apartment in North Bay city centre stands at around $789 per month. If you're okay with an apartment outside of the city centre that will be cost around $684. Compared with Canada's largest cities, Thunder Bay has a significantly lower cost of living, especially in the areas of housing and transportation. For example, renting a one-bedroom apartment downtown is $883 per month in Thunder Bay compared to $1,520 per month in Toronto.
Knowing where to look for advertised positions, having a terse, clear resume, and being able to explain how you can reduce temporary work permit (TWP) processing times will increase your chances of success.
