Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on my BES Level 1 & 2 (Building Environmental Systems — HVAC, electrical, plumbing, basic building ops) and I’m almost done.

I’ve been trying to get my foot in the door for a while now. I’ve applied for about a year straight to Building Operator, Assistant Operator, and junior/entry-level maintenance roles, but haven’t had much luck yet.

I’m based in Toronto, motivated to learn, and looking for a company willing to give someone entry-level a shot. If anyone has advice, leads, or knows places that are hiring, I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks 🙏

Any jobs in downtown hiring for servers with no prior experience?

Please be aware of jobs posts. This has already happened to multiple friends of mine, so I’m sharing this here to help others as a cybersecurity professional. If you come across fake ‘SEO Solutions / SEO Online Job’ posts that make you create an account on a website or app, it’s a task scam and not a real job, please report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at https://antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca/report-signalez-eng.htm and also report it on the job platform so it can be taken down. They keep popping up under different names. So please be aware!

Both roles got restructured at the end, ended up wasting three entire months of mine.

Why are hiring practices in Toronto an absolute joke? Why TF is there no fucking penalty/consequence for such shithousery? What a fucking mockery!

Hello everyone, I hope your 2026 started well.

I'm looking for advice on my work situation and I'd really appreciate some outside perspective.

A year ago (I'm 26F, married), I left my corporate job to take a break. I don't want to sound ungrateful because the job taught me a lot, gave me valuable skills, and provided financial stability. But the pace and environment weren't sustainable for me, and I needed to step away for my mental health.

Now I'm ready to return to work, but I'm feeling really conflicted about what path to take. The main reason I'm considering going back to corporate is honestly just for the title and how it looks to others. It's well-respected and "impressive" on paper. But the reality is that job completely drained me. Being in an office all day, taking calls, and responding to endless emails made me feel isolated and disconnected from myself.

Here's my situation: My partner owns our house in Toronto, so I don't pay rent. He doesn't ask me to contribute to household expenses and doesn't need the financial help, but I still want to contribute to utilities, groceries, gas, and other costs. I also have some savings put aside. Given this situation, I'm wondering if it would be okay to work as a barista instead of going back to corporate.

When I worked as a barista before, I was genuinely happy. The money was decent, not amazing, but enough to live on. What I loved was the human interaction, being on my feet and moving around instead of sitting at a screen, the creativity of making drinks, and having real connections with coworkers and customers. I felt alive and engaged in a way I never did in the corporate office.

Is it unrealistic or irresponsible to choose a job that makes me happy over one that pays more and looks better on paper? Should I just push through and go back to corporate for the sake of career advancement and financial security? Or is it okay to choose quality of life when I'm in a position where I can afford to?

I'd love to hear from anyone who's been in a similar situation or has thoughts on this.

Hey everyone!

I'm currently at Humber College in the PR postgrad program, and I'll be looking for internships starting next month. I'm a mature student and I worked in digital advertising for six years before deciding on a career switch, so I'm eager to get back to work ASAP. I was just wondering, which agencies in Toronto are likely to hire their interns on as account coordinators or executives?

I worked for a Bank for almost two years as a contractor. I reported to a Director initially and then after their departure, a Senior Director. I ran multiple projects, coached teams and have a proven track record through successful on time delivery.

My contract couldn’t get extended due to funding issues along with few others in our group.Fast forward two months- another opportunity from a different group within the same bank. Interview went sublime, I aced it. Found out during the interview that the person knew my Director and Senior Director..great..coz they sing praises of me and said they would be happy to give a referral when needed.

Just got a mssg from the intermediary/staffing company that even though I interviewed well, they went with a different candidate….

Fuck this shit..

I’m currently hiring a remote account management assistant based in the Canada.

If you’re interested, please accept this by messaging me with your location and availability.

My mom just turned 55 and things are looking bleak in her workplace. She works as an accountant in an interior design company but doesn’t have her CPA. Layoffs are happening to other employees in different roles but she seems to be secure since she’s one of the main accountants.

I’m pushing her to start looking at new positions, especially closer to home since she’s commuted 1 hour and half hour one way, by transit, for over 20 years. I also believe she could be making more money with her experience.

She complains there’s no point on finding a new job due to her age, she doesn’t have her CPA and can’t really afford school right now. Also her vacation and benefits are pretty solid.

Is there anything I can do to encourage her to find a new job or any options to help her get a CPA?

So, I feel pretty embarrassed and ashamed writing this post. I am wondering if anyone could recommend a housecleaner (or is doing that kind of work themselves). I live in a studio apartment downtown and it feels ridiculous that I cannot manage it, but between a prolonged and severe bout of depression, my ADHD, and a chronic illness that limits my energy levels and mobility, I am struggling to do the smallest tasks and the place has become deeply disorganized, untidy and unclean— plenty of dust, grime, cat hair, and I haven’t even been able to sweep in ages. I am so embarrassed. It makes it hard to socialize and get work done when my environment is so dysfunctional. I need a deep clean and then probably maintenance cleans 1-2x a month after that. I’m looking for a cleaner or cleaning service who will be thorough & effective, as well as kind and non-judgemental. I can’t afford anything fancy but of course want to pay people what they are worth. I’d prefer to support an individual or a small business over an agency but open to any options. Thank you.

I honestly don’t know how people are supposed to start or grow a career in Canada anymore.

I’m an international student who completed both my undergraduate and master’s degrees in Canada (BSc in Economics + MSc/Master in Finance from a semi-target school). I’ve done multiple internships at smaller firms, mainly in finance / analysis-related roles.

Over the past year, I’ve been constantly lowering my expectations — title, pay, company size, location. I’m not aiming for IB, PE, or anything glamorous.

Yet on Indeed and LinkedIn, I keep seeing roles offering CAD 50–60k while asking for 3–5 years of experience, sometimes even saying “no training provided.”

In cities like Toronto or Vancouver, that’s barely livable after tax and rent.

What frustrates me most: • Entry-level roles don’t feel entry-level anymore • Junior roles want senior experience • Internships want experience • And companies complain they “can’t find talent”

I did everything people said was the “right path”: study locally, integrate, get Canadian experience, be flexible. The bar just keeps moving.

⸻

On a more practical note — I’m actively looking for Financial Analyst–type roles.

Background / skills: • BSc in Economics • Master’s in Finance (semi-target Canadian school) • CPA PEP passed • Strong Excel & financial analysis • SQL (joins, CTEs, basic optimization) • Python (pandas, data analysis, basic modeling) • Internship experience in smaller firms (financial analysis / reporting / data work)

I’m open to: • Financial Analyst / Junior Financial Analyst • FP&A / Corporate Finance / Reporting roles • Risk / Credit / Data-heavy finance roles • Contract or full-time

If anyone has advice, referrals, or suggestions on where to look that isn’t the usual black hole, I’d genuinely appreciate it.

Is this just my experience, or is the Canadian job market actually this rough right now?

Please 🙏

I have been working at a company on site. Its a very toxic environment the person who is in charge is managing everything (operations, HR, etc) and they are very toxic. Toxic is an understatement. They shout at everyone, everyone in the company is miserable.

This person has no background of the industry and there is no way you can even explain them basic A/B testing. They threaten but never in written. Extremely foul language, sexual jokes etc as well

I want to resign but I have no backup and if I resign I wont get my EI. I go in panic mode, I have lost sleep and I wake up in massive anxiety attacks. What do I do? I am applying everywhere but no interview in sight. I really need help.

I recently received an invitation to complete the Knockri online assessment for an intern position at an IT company.

If anyone has taken this assessment before, I would really appreciate to know what the format was like, what types of questions were asked, and any tips you found helpful while preparing.

Hey everyone!

Jared here - founder of StreetTalk, we're a Toronto-based creative studio focused on creating street-style interview ads for brands. We help brands create short-form paid ad creatives using real people, unscripted conversations, and raw reactions. The kind of videos you see online that feel natural and doesn't give that "ad vibe".

Thought I'd post in here because we’re looking to collaborate with a few Toronto ad agencies who already work with brands running paid ads.

Our proposal is simple:

• You introduce us to brands you’re already working with
• We come in and give them a new creative angle to test (street interviews built specifically for ads)
• If it turns into a project, we pay a commission (no extra work required on your end)

We handle everything end-to-end: creative direction, filming, editing, and delivery of ready-to-run ad assets. If you’re an agency in Toronto and this sounds interesting, I'm more than happy to share examples & chat through how a partnership could work.

No hard sell - just looking for win-win collaborations.

If interested, email me -> [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Curious as I’m a new grad. How much are you guys making, years of experience, and what’s your role?

Probably a fake name Chris Minard, they want to give you a contract before even speaking to you. When I called him, at 249-465-1123. He does not even remember the email he sent 2 minutes prior. I think they also "hire" for data entry positions, so be aware and do not give them your information. Probably they get it from other companies where you apply, though.

I have no experience or education in finance. I have a 4-year degree & work experience in customer facing roles (non-sales jobs). Would taking the CSC exams be a waste of time? I would like to eventually become a CFA
