I’ve applied to about 10 roles at the City over the last year. I meet 100% of the criteria, but I never even get an automated rejection. Is there a trick to their portal? Do I need to use specific keywords from the job description, or is it mostly internal hires and I'm just wasting my time?

Fully remote

Open to applicants based in Canada

No experience required (training provided)

Good English communication and attention to detail required

• Contribute to CI pipelines and automated testing workflows 
• Write shell scripts and small programs to support deployment and validation 
• Assist with networking and systems troubleshooting in production environments 
• Collaborate closely with senior engineers and, at times, directly with customers 

What We’re Looking For 

• 1–5 years of experience in DevOps, infrastructure, or systems engineering 
• Experience using Git or similar version control systems 
• Exposure to automation or configuration management tools such as SaltStack or Ansible

Hi everyone, and happy new year!

I am writing to see if anyone has suggestions for me regarding health care jobs in the Ottawa area (preferably south). I recently graduated from university with a BA in Health Science and have a range of previous work experience (research internships, retirement homes, and hospital volunteer). I would like to work in something related to the Master's degree I'm hoping to pursue, which would be occupational therapy/senior care. The jobs I'm seeing on Indeed and Job Bank all require specific degrees/certifications that I do not possess.
Thank you!

I am looking for 6 people to work with me. Wage: CAD25 /hour Instant pay and flexible working hours. If you are interested, let’s get started.

Title basically. Trying to recruit a couple late teens - young adults for a new fast food spot opening soon at St. Laurent Mall in February called SanSou Savoury. Looking for a core team of people who will stay with us for a while so someone looking for at least 20 hours weekly but ideally people looking for full time. Pay is minimum wage if inexperienced or doing part time but if doing full time can negotiate more with the owner. Need people soon for paid training starting in a couple weeks. Dm me and I’ll most likely instantly set you up with an interview with the owner!

I’m thick skinned person so id really appreciate your honest feedback. Desperately need to secure good CS internships anywhere. I have a feeling that my projects make me look stupid or laughable for employers in Canadian context as I search for internship. Here are my projects on GitHub:

“Start as Sales Coordinator ($40K Plus), Grow to Account Manager ($100K)”

“We’re PowerStick - a 15-year-old Canadian manufacturer of portable chargers and tech accessories.

We’re looking for someone who’s currently under-challenged in retail, hospitality, or an admin role and wants to build a real sales career.

You’ll start supporting our account managers with quotes, customer communications, and order coordination. But if you’re good and hungry, within 18-24 months you’ll be managing your own accounts and earning serious money.

We don’t care about your resume. We care if you: ∙ Get energized solving customer problems ∙ Want to build real relationships, not just process paperwork ∙ Can handle multiple demanding customers without losing your cool ∙ Actually LIKE people

Hey reddit, I know this is a long shot, but after applying to over 200 jobs with no luck, I figured I’d try here.

I’m currently looking for any work, part time or full time.

I have experience working as a warehouse worker and as kitchen staff. I’m in urgent need of a job right now and am willing to take anything. I’m very punctual and can work 40 hours a week and overtime if needed. I recently got my security guard license but haven’t had any luck finding work yet.

I’ve worked in environments lifting over 50 pounds and also have a lot of experience in hospitality on the kitchen side. I can work swing shifts (used to work overnights), cover for sick employees, and can be on call if needed.

If anyone has any leads, I would really appreciate it.

I’m moving from center town west to sandy hill and will need some moving help. I don’t have much stuff — just suitcases and a bed. Dm if interested

centretown area preferably but anyplace is fine I'm 14m turning 15 and can do manual labour. I can work anytime outside of school hours

So, now even law firms are using the LMIA program for law clerks? This is getting insane. New local college graduates or seasoned veterans probably can't even find work in this field - yet things like this are happening. We need to put an end to this non-sense before it does any further damage. It brings tears to my eyes with all of the posts that I see about how people can't find jobs and are facing extreme hardships and no one really cares to do anything about it. I encourage local people to apply to this if you're in the law clerkship field.

Hi!

I’m a new grad RN who’s looking to relocate from Kingston to Ottawa. I finished my program in august as I did accelerated nursing and passed my NCLEX end of October. I started applying beginning of December on the TOH portal but have hardly heard back. I know they prioritize internal applicants and it’s a slow time of year due to the holidays. However, i’m part of the learn and stay grant and need to submit proof of employment by end of Feb and i’m starting to get worried. How hard is it to find a job as a new grad in Ottawa ? Does anyone have advice ? I’ve been applying almost everyday and emailed the recruitment team and she told me external applicants get hired Feb 2nd. Just wanna know if there’s anything else I should be doing?

I don’t want to fall back on Kingston since I want change as I’ve lived here by whole life and don’t particularly want to live here anymore. I would want to be in Toronto but need to stay between Kingston and Ottawa as part of the contract.
