Jobs in Canada

Unless you are specifically looking for a chance to live in and explore the wilder regions of the country, or have a very specific skill (i.e. ski/snowboard instructor), your best bet for finding jobs abroad in Canada are in the nation’s metropolitan areas.

Montreal. Montreal is Canada’s most cosmopolitan city, and also most complex. French is the city’s official language, but English is just as widely spoken too. A low level of French will not shut you out of the job market in Montreal, but picking up at least a few basic phrases will help make day-to-day life more pleasant and less difficult.

Toronto is where the bulk of Canada’s business is carried out. Banking and telecommunications companies are the city’s largest employers as Toronto is home to Canada’s stock exchange and five of its largest banks. Additionally, all of the English speaking national news and sports networks are headquartered in Toronto.

Vancouver is to Canada what Paris is to France or Cape Town is to South Africa. It’s a city blessed with beauty, both natural and architectural, and a magnet for arts, culture, creativeness, and diversity. Nicknamed Hollywood North, it’s the place to go if you’re an aspiring actor or musician.
