Finding Work in British Columbia
Image
Immigrating to Canada does not guarantee you will find work. It is important to research the local job market before immigrating. The BC government publishes a lot of information about the labour market in BC.
Tip:
Certain industries are growing faster than others, so looking for work in those industries may be easier. In-demand industries include:
- Tourism
- Transportation
- Agri-Foods
- Construction
Once you are legally able to work in Canada, you can use government employment programs to assist you with your job search. This usually means you must be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
