In this article we will cover the greatest job sites and the most popular social sites used for recruiting in Canada.

Canadian job market

Even though there are so many countries that need to deal with shutdowns and job loss in certain sectors, the job market in Canada is holding up remarkably well. It even has had a moderate growth overall and it seems that there are more and more career openings created each day.

The most researched professionals are Financial and Investment Analysts, Construction Managers, Mechanical Engineers and Industrial Instrument Technicians.

It is rather common to find candidates with high English language ability. If a recruiter needs the candidates to be English and French bilingual, the best would be to look for them in Quebec, as most candidates in that area have an excellent knowledge of the English and French language.

The best recruitment channels to effectively recruit in Canada

Every recruiter knows it is crucial to know how to reach the best candidates and where to look for them. According to Recruitment Intelligence Group still the most used channel to look for a job by Canadian professionals is to look up for a job advert on one of the most popular Canadian job boards. Many of the active jobseekers check also the companies’ recruitment websites. However publishing a traditional job ad on any printed media became very obsolete and uploading CVs in database is also quite popular among the Canadian professionals. That’s why searching for the perfect candidate in one of the sites offering a Resume Database could be a good choice as well.

      1. This is really good information and thank you for sharing. How relevant or effective is it to publish a job advert is dual language (english/french) for talent communities in Canada.
