important stuff before you start working:
A total of 7,500 work permits will be issued this year. The applicant must be 18 years or older. A fee for the work permit or the holiday visa is required. In order to get a job you need a social insurance number (SIN) number which the Canadian government can issue. Applications may take between four and six weeks to process. Always contact the Canadian embassy in your home country to find out more about obtaining work visas.

 Check the Government of Canada website at www.cic.gc.ca/english/applications/work.html or www.cic.ca/english/work

For working holiday visa information, see: www.canada.org.uk/visa-info/visit/e_stuwrk.htm

Tips that may help you when applying to work in Canada:

 

  • Realize the importance of language skills. Your own mother tongue can be an asset for finding a job in Canada. Although it's not necessary to be completely fluent in English to find a job in Canada, a good understanding of English is very important. Remember, having a conversation in a social setting is very different than a business meeting.
  • Several local and regional newspapers are good resources in helping you find employment. Check the Vancouver Sun and Vancouver Province, and free newspapers such as the Georgia Straight, the West Ender and the North Shore News. C&N Backpackers works with highly qualified and prestigious job agencies that can help place you in the right job.
  • The application process is very competitive so it's important to actively sell yourself.
  • Keep your resume or CV short. Do not include personal details, such as your marrital status or whether you have kids. The focus of your job application should be to persuade prospective employers to invite you in for an interview. Your resume is a marketing tool which should be adapted to the market in which you intend to work.
  • A Canadian job application covering letter should be typed in a short, professional style. While staying at C&N Backpacker's hostel you may use our office equipment. A work tool kit created by one of the largest employment agencies in Vancouver will help you focus on the important issues.
  • Your covering letter and application should always contain a Canadian mailing address and telephone number where you can be reached.

 

 

 

Canada's Travel & Tourism Industry Welcomes Introduction of Ten-Year Visas

The Tourism Industry Association of Canada (TIAC) enthusiastically welcomed the July 20th announcement of a new, ten-year multiple-entry visa for international travelers wishing to visit Canada.

Internationally, tourism is the world's fastest growing export sector, and much of the growth is being fuelled by a newly-mobile middle class in emerging markets such as Brazil, India, China, and Mexico. Enhancing Canada's ability to welcome these potential visitors has the potential to mean millions of new customers and billions of dollars in foreign currency injected into the Canadian economy.

"A ten-year visa will help to put Canada back on an even footing with other destinations in the competitive international travel market," said TIAC President and CEO David Goldstein. "This is a common sense solution that will make the visa process more efficient for our government, and more convenient for our valued international visitors."

TIAC recognizes the work of Citizenship and Immigration Minister Jason Kenney on identifying the need to facilitate legitimate travel from our key allies and trading partners where there is no threat. Increasing access to Canada is one of the tourism sector's key priorities, and the need for modernization of our visa system has been articulated as a vital aspect of enhancing access and to help Canada's tourism sector grow and thrive.

This simple solution will help to bring Canada in line with other destinations, and will provide both travelers and the department with the means to facilitate trade in the tourism sector. It is also a further demonstration of the Harper government's commitment to promote growth in the tourism sector, and will help to support the interdepartmental initiatives in the forthcoming Federal Tourism Strategy.
