Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Jobs for Engineers
Why is it so hard for Canadian Companies to find Engineers?
As Canada grows and the average age of our engineers moves beyond retirement, Canadian companies are finding it harder and harder to replace talent. Immigration is filling some of the void, and Canadian educational institutions are picking up the rest of the slack. There is a limited supply and companies must stay innovative in order to attract the best employees.
Why do we need a specific job board aimed at helping Engineers in Canada find work? Can’t they use the same job boards as everyone else?
In a perfect world, we would not need an additional job board for Engineers in Canada. Unfortunately, the larger job boards have so much information and so many different jobs that great applicants can sometimes get lost in the shuffle. When job seekers and employers come to jobs forengineers.ca, they know exactly what they are looking for.
I want to hire a new immigrant, but they require sponsorship. What do I do?
Jobsforenginers.ca is a job board and is not able to offer any immigration advice. If this is a path you would like to take, we strongly encourage that you review your options here https://www.canada.ca/en/services/immigration-citizenship.html or contact a certified consultant found here https://iccrc-crcic.ca/.
Do you work with any partners to find qualified applicants for these jobs?
Absolutely. www.jobsforengineers.ca shares our resources and positions with dozens of employment centers across Canada. We work with government-funded initiatives, not for profit organizations, community groups, and local clergy to share these positions with amazing staff across the country. Our goal is to provide a national job board for new engineers in Canada.
