Description
Newcomers to Canada bring valuable skills and experience—but often face unique barriers when entering the workforce. This webinar explores common challenges in the job search, including adapting resumes for the Canadian labour market, understanding workplace culture, and gaining that often-requested “Canadian work experience.”
Join Pratima Nanda (Regina Open Door Society) for insights into the realities newcomers face and how career development professionals can provide meaningful, practical support. Gain strategies to better guide and empower newcomers as they navigate their employment journey in Canada.
