Meet Geetalika. She immigrated to Canada and settled in Armstrong, BC. Despite her outstanding professional background, she had a hard time getting a job in Canada.

We helped Geetalika with her resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile-writing skills. We also coached her to develop pro-active job search techniques. In less than two weeks, Geetalika got a full-time job and is very happy to be working in a field she is passionate about.

Our coaches are standing by. Sign up today to get started:

To qualify for no-cost coaching through Career Paths For Skilled Immigrants, you must have your permanent resident status for 5 years or less (or a letter from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada that states you have been approved for permanent resident status), or be a Refugee or Protected Person.
