I've looked on www.careerbuilder.ca and monster.ca but I can't find anything. I don't even narrow my results! Is there some secret place Canada hides their job advertisements?

The latest news out is Alberta is BOOMING !!! I was born and raised in Alberta. The job market there is busting big time,a nd tons and tons of pple are moving there. Did you try Canada.com I think it is? Try Manpower sometimes that is a good way to get your foot in the door. let me know how you make out.

Workopolis is the best place to start. It's national. If you're looking for a corporate-type job, go directly to the web sites of the big banks and others. They post under About Us > Careers. What kind of work are you looking for?

jobbank.ca and careerbeacon.ca are both good sites (though careerbeacon is most useful for jobs in Atlantic Canada). The Globe and Mail online, federal and provincial government websites, larger universities' (U of T, etc) job sites are also good places to start. Headhunters are an okay option for IT & exec work. If you're looking for something temporary/immediate, you might try one of the national/international staffing agencies such as Spherion.

I guess it really depends on what you're looking for, because I just did a quick search on Monster and there were plenty of receptionist and IT jobs (what myself and hubby do, respectively).

I'd suggest checking school board job boards too. They don't tend to post on places like Monster or Workopolis.

Depending on your field, you might have more luck with a field-specific site too (although those can be tricky to find if you don't already know about them...)

For sports and sports-admin stuff, www.canadiansport.ca has a good jobs section.

And if you're interested in working for a non-profit, you can also check www.charityvillage.com and Good Work Canada.

Good luck! :)

also try...http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/

Char

I use this one all the time if I'm looking for jobs. It's pretty good and updated every day for new ones. Monster.ca has too many 'fake' ones like promising that if u work at home u can make 10k a month.

cbc.ca also has a jobs section

also pinpoint the major newspapers in the area you are looking at and look at their classifieds.
