Hello;

I'm considering applying to this for next summer; probably early June to Mid-September. I have a few queries though;

1)How difficult is it to find temporary employment once I arrive in Canada? The website states that they offer help when Job searching, but I'm not sure how effective this would be?

2)The website only seems to mention Toronto and British Columbia; is it possible to work in other provinces? I was hoping to stay in Fredericton or Moncton, NB.

Thanks.

It's possibly to work anywhere in Canada on a Bunac working Visa for up to one year. The reason the website probably only says those two areas is because they don't have SWAP offices everywhere which you won't really even need anyway.

Finding work temporarily, well if you are in a city area and willing to work in supermarkets, hotels, food service then it should be relatively easy to find something, plus you could use recruitment agencies if you are after customer service/administrative work. Try Kijiji, Craigslist, Job Bank Canada, Wowjobs, employer websites, newspapers.

One thing to point out is that if it's the non-student visa you wish to apply for, applications open in December and they often run out of visas by Spring so there may not be any available by June.

Just thought I'd mention it, even if it doesn't apply to you it may for anybody else reading.

Good luck.
