Got laid off IT(14 years experience) and have been trying to get back to work for some time now but not getting any leads. Have been applying after updating resumes as per job description, using AI to get an ATS score, etc...

Wanted advice on any resume writing services or any paid consultancies that you have used and had any luck with.

Hi all,

I’m a student finishing my IT support diploma and currently looking for an internship to complete my program. Available to start right away, on-site or remote.

Solid basics in troubleshooting, hardware/software support, networking, and ticketing systems
Comfortable with Windows and basic Linux
Good communication skills, used to working with end users
Reliable and quick learner

If you know of any openings or have tips on where to look, I’d really appreciate it. Happy to send my resume by DM.

Thanks!

Got hired so thought I’d share. Krispy Kreme is hiring and pay is $16-$17 depending on what you do. I basically went to their website and then onto the careers page. Good luck everyone, I know the market is bad right now. Spreading the word!!

Has anybody apply to Calgary transit operator or shuttle bus operator this summer?

If so, how long does it usual take to hear back? Just curious as I know it’s hard to gear in with city of Calgary

Hi all!

I'm seeking some advice for trying to seek out and maybe land a role as a Mechanical/Project EIT or Junior (but honestly not quite Junior) Project Engineer/Manager role in construction/O&G/Utilities in Calgary.

For context, my wife and I are from Toronto, and she recently got admitted into Calgary Med School so I've since got her a place in Calgary, while I continue to work my Project Engineer role here in Toronto. Unfortunately, my current employer can't let me work from the Calgary office given that my role is a bit regional to Toronto in a sense.

So I've been job hunting for the past few days ever since I got the news that its either I continue to ride it out in Toronto, or the writings on the wall. They've been supportive in not pressuring me to make a decision so I have free reign to apply now as I work.

Aside from a co-op work term in Grande Prairie, AB several years ago, I don't really have a network in Calgary. Ive been applying to jobs on LinkedIn and Indeed (pretty aggressively I'd say), and sure its been a few days so I'm not particularly anxious right now, but I may be down the road.

Any suggestions for me finding roles that fit my needs. I'd be registering as an EIT through APEGA asap, to at least get the ball rolling on that. Should I consider smaller boutique firms or general contractors as the best way to get my foot in the door rather than going for the larger corporations which may have longer recruiting timelines?

Any websites/job boards I could consider?

Few things that may simplify my profile: Canadian citizen, G class drivers (highest in Ontario), have a residence in Calgary that I can move to at any moment, relocation would take me a weekend at most. Also, worked as Project Engineer for 2.5-3 years, have plenty of coop experience from Uni. I'm P.Eng track here in Ontario!

Thank you in advance :)

Anyone here currently working in Alberta Corrections as a Correctional Peace Officer or gone through the hiring process recently?
I keep seeing the CPO 1 & 2 competition posted as ongoing for multiple locations, so I’m trying to understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes.
Are they genuinely short staffed right now? If so, how bad is it and which centres are struggling the most?
Also, what’s the real reason for the turnover? Is it mostly shift work, burnout, forced overtime, management, safety issues, people leaving for sheriffs/police/other peace officer jobs, or something else?
For people who applied recently, how long did it take to hear back after applying, and what was the process actually like from application to interview, physical testing, background checks, training and offer?
I’m also curious how competitive it really is right now. If they are short staffed, does that make the hiring process easier or are they still very selective?
Would appreciate answers from current or former Alberta CPOs, especially anyone who knows what staffing and hiring look like in 2026.

Hi everyone! I’m a new dental assisting grad and I’m currently looking for an office with a supportive and patient team.

I’d love to find an office where the dentists and staff are understanding that new grads are still learning and getting comfortable working in a real clinical environment. I’m super eager to learn, take feedback, and improve, I’m just hoping to find a team that’s patient, kind, and willing to help me grow rather than expecting me to know everything right away.

If anyone knows of an office with an incredible team that is especially good with new grads, I would really appreciate any recommendations! I’d also love to hear from other dental assistants about offices where you had a positive experience starting out.

Thank you!! :)

Does anyone know where I can get hired as an electrical apprenticeship?

Hello! My partner is currently looking for security guard jobs. He has an active security license already! He has been applying on indeed and directly on company sites, any leads would be appreciated!

Hi everyone,

If you have any leads on a business analyst or office admin positions, I’d be happy to connect with you.

I got let go last year in September and it’s been rough trying to find work full time. I have 5 years in business analyst experience in the utility business with 2 of those years having Project Management responsibilities with UAT. For office administration, I have 8 months of experience when I worked for Blackline Safety as an Office Support Specialist.

Being on EI and having it run out sucks. If you have even a full time gig that’s not office work but is full time guaranteed, I’d love your help and any direction.

I have been apying for job for a long time. Luckily I have a job that can pay my bills but it is not something that I want to be doing. I am currently working as an insurance broker.

I recently came across a position that needed some insurance experience. I was grateful for the experience I have gained as an insurance broker.

I reached to employees of that company on LinkedIn, connected with one and got a referral as well. I applied for the position 3 days after the posting was out using the referral in my job application. Attached a resume and a cover letter as well.

Later an senior recruiter of the company accepted my request and I reached out to her to say that I have applied and am very interested in the position. She forwarded my name to the recruiter who was hiring. Recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn and said that they will contact me if I am being shortlisted.

I just feel like having a referral doesn't even matter anymore. I even went an extra mile by reaching out to the senior recruiter. After doing all of this and having enough experience for the role I am still not being shortlisted. Can't people see how excited I am for this position.

I need advice on what more should I be doing in order get an interview from the company.

I don't start my new role until Feb 1st, so I'm looking for a contract or part time role 6 months or less. It's probably a bit of a longshot posting here, but oh well. Here are some of the primary services I can offer you:
