캐나다 유학후취업이 잘되는 지역안내

Looking for a job in Canada? Try Saskatoon
일자리를 찾는다면 사스카치완주로

 

 

2013년 6월 18일날 야후 캐나다에 메인 뉴스로 나온 기사내용을 발췌해 보았습니다. 전반적인 기사 내용은 캐나다에서 일자리가 풍부한 지역에 대한 내용이며, 여기서도 마찬가지로 사스카치완주가 낮은 실업률과 일자리기 구하는데 있어 가장 적합한 지역이라고 소개하고 있습니다. 사스카치완주에 과연 일자리가 있는지 그리고 거기 일자리 없다고 들었는데 졸업 후에 정말 일을 구할 수 있나요? 라는 질문하시는 분들이 많으신데요, 아래의 기사를  잘 읽어보시길 바래요. 일자리 구하기에 적합한 지역으로 명시가 된 곳은 나나이모, 캠룹스, 위니펙, 리자이나 입니다. 그리고 최근 일자리 구하기가 쉽지 않은 지역으로는 키치너,캠브리지, 워터루, 케이프 브랜튼, 오샤와, 윈져 입니다.

 

캐나다 취업에 관한 저의 개인적인 의견을 말씀드리자면,  캐나다도 미국의 영향으로 인해 경기가 썩 좋은편은 아닙니다. 미국이 경제적으로 휘청거릴때 캐나다는 즉각적인 영향을 받지는 않았는데. 미국이 경기가 나쁘고 시간이 이제 좀 지나니 서서히 캐나다 경제에도 영향을 미치는듯해요. 이러한때에는 취업이 잘 되는 곳 일자리가 풍부한 곳으로 지역을 옮기셔서 일자리를 찾는게 맞다고 생각합니다. 캐나다인들도 자기가 태어난 곳 그리고 공부한 곳을 떠나 일자리가 있는곳으로 이동을 한답니다. 조금더 일자리가 있는 곳으로 그리고 나한테 기회가 더 많은곳으로 이주를 하는게 현명한거라고 생각해요.

 

일자리가 풍부한 곳으로 이주는 하고 싶지만 날씨가 춥고, 살기 힘들고, 한인타운없고, 한국인 별로 없고 적응하기 힘들다고 해서 고민이 많이되요라고 얘기하시는 분들이 많으신데요, 캐나다는 원래 날씨가 추운 나라에요, 밴쿠버를 제외하고는 대부분 겨울이 길고 여름은 짧고 추운편입니다. 나에게 딱 맞는 일자리를 찾다보면 시간이 남들보다 꽤 오래걸린답니다. 캐나다에서는 우선 경험을 먼저 쌓는게 중요해요, 경험을 쌓으면서 한단계 한단계 더 업그레이드를 하신다면 추후에는 내가 선택할 수 있는 폭이 넓어지실테니깐요.

 

 

 

Adzuna, a U.K.-based job-search engine, has recently expanded to help Canadians find work, too.

After "some serious number crunching" — Adzuna compared their data from 36 Canadian job websites with the latest Employment Insurance and unemployment statistics — the site determined the 45 best and worst places to find a job in Canada.

In top spot: Saskatoon, where there are just 4.4 job seekers per vacancy.

Other great places to find work include Nanaimo, Kamloops, Winnipeg and Regina.

 

"Nanaimo is a service centre for the mid-Island, a transportation hub, a draw for tourists and we have a growing technology sector developing here so, unlike other Canadian cities, our economy is not overly reliant on any one sector," says Sasha Angus, head of the Nanaimo Economic Development Corporation.

If you're looking for work in the St. Catharines-Niagara area, however, be prepared for some major competition: there are currently 99.9 jobseekers per job vacancy, in part due to factory closings and fewer tourists from south of the border.

 

Other tough places to find work include the Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo region (where Research in Motion has been cutting jobs), Cape Breton, Oshawa and Windsor.

 

These results are somewhat surprising. In Windsor, where the unemployment rate is at 9.2 per cent, there are 27 job seekers for every posting. But in Waterloo Region, where the unemployment rate is at a considerably lower 7.1 per cent, there are 73 job seekers for every posting, the Record reports.

 

These stats may be reflecting a mismatch between the skills job seekers have and the jobs that are currently available, argues Art Sinclair, Waterloo Region's Chamber of Commerce's vice-president.

 

"It is a problem across Canada that there are jobs available but there is not a match between the people looking for jobs and the jobs that are available," Sinclair tells the Record. "That trend may be more accentuated here in Waterloo Region."

"There are vacancies in information technology here, of course, but those jobs require a pretty specialized skill set," he says.

The nationwide survey also found that Montreal is a great place for students and recent graduates, as 9 per cent of job postings are for graduate positions or summer internships.

 

Jobs in sales comprised the top hiring sector in Canada, with 8,567 jobs currently available at an average annual salary of $45,302, the report lists.

 

The greatest growth in the job market is being seen in the information/technology and renewable-energy sectors. Adzuna forecasts 84,000 job opportunities being created in this areas by the end of 2013.

 

Adzuna country manager James Maskell acknowledges that not every job is posted on job boards — it's almost impossible to measure word-of-mouth and social-media-posted vacancies — but believes Adzuna's database of 100,000 jobs is large enough to accurately outline job trends.

 

"We have good coverage and are confident that our numbers are correct," Maskell says. Adzuna lists real-time vacancies for job-seekers, like a news aggregator for jobs.

 

"Our main pitch is that we collect as many jobs as we possibly can from the Internet," Maskell tells the Cambridge Times. "We bring them together in one place and make them searchable, very much kind of like a Google, but just for jobs."

 

This "gives us an up-to-the-minute view of how the employment market is changing across the country," Andrew Hunter, the company’s co-founder, tells the Globe and Mail. “In times of economic uncertainty, job seekers should be looking to arm themselves with data to help them target their job search in parts of Canada where they have the best possible chance of finding work.”

The Globe and Mail's Tavia Grant writes that Adzuna's information about the Canadian job market fills a void in this country's employment statistics:

 

"Detailed public information about current job demand has been in short supply in Canada. Statistics Canada releases data on vacancy trends, but it is by province, while the Conference Board’s help-wanted index tracks change, but not by industry. It’s a vital piece of missing information about the labour market, as these data can help job seekers make more informed decisions on whether to move, stay put or, in some cases, change careers."
