“When you are rejected from job after job, simply because you don’t have Canadian experience, one starts to lose faith in the system. And one starts to lose confidence.”
The requirement for Canadian experience refers to the preference that some employers have for candidates who have worked for a Canadian employer before.
There is growing concern, especially as Canadian governments boost efforts to target immigration levels to meet needs for key work sectors like health care and housing, that this puts newcomers at a disadvantage: they can’t get hired for a role unless they have Canadian experience, and they can’t get Canadian experience on their resume unless they get hired.
