Digital and integrated agencies in Alberta and BC
 

Hi Guys!

We've finally got my wife and my IEC visas secured.. thanks again to everyone on here who helped with info and finger crossing!!

I'm a digital designer / developer, with 5+ years experience here in the UK, and I'm now looking at work opportunities and wondering if anyone has any feedback on digital and integrated agencies in Alberta or BC??

We're currently looking mainly at Calgary, as we met up with agencies there 2 years ago, but any info or experience anyone has had would be really appreciated!

My wife is a multi-skills sports coach, specialising in field hockey, so if anyone has had any experience with the field hockey setup that would be awesome too!!


Thanks!!

Some are independents, some part of larger groups like WPP. I'd suggest browsing their sites and learning more about them.

Hey Rich!

Thanks for the reply and the urls! There's quite a few I didn't know about on there so it's really helpful!! Especially as I'm finding that agencies often only advertise roles on their own sites..

Funnily enough I'd emailed Suitcase about an Interactive Designer role just before I posted here.

2 years ago I met up with the HR manager at Rare Method and got great feedback. Unfortunately she's moved company so I'm trying to get a fresh look at all the agencies to get an idea of what they're looking for at the moment.


Thanks again!!
