Any tips for a Ukrainian who is planning to move to Canada? Maybe cultural differences, food, weather, etc.

Can I actually go to a library and ask for some help with the resume? I’ve heard that it’s difficult applying for jobs because lots of CVs are automatically sorted out. Does having social media accounts help finding a job? I’ve abandoned/deleted fb/Instagram, etc long time ago, and my wife only has some Chinese analogs.

Thanks for the response, and for being so welcoming.

I know here in BC the Labour ministry has job centres called “WorkBC” that not only help with resumes and job searches, but actually have dedicated classes specifically for newcomers from Ukraine.

P.S. Welcome! We’re glad to have you, and I hope everything works out without too much trouble :)

I will take a look. Thank you!

I’ve always asked friends and family for help with my résumé but a library or a community centre will definitely be able to either help or point you in the right direction. Worst case you can post again here with the personal information changed or blacked out.

Welcome to Canada! I’m sorry for how things are going there and I hope you enjoy your time here!
