I'm American. I could use a hug. I would like to emigrate to Canada. I need help.
You'd have to like hockey, learn what a 2-4 is, and be polite, eh.
I don't like any sports but if I get invited to a hockey game I won't turn it down.
I'll go Google what a 2-4 is.
I'm from the South so I can totally do polite, "Yes mam, no mam, yes sir, no sir, etc..."
Please let me in, I'm like three weeks away from having full stack developer skills. I just want a job and pay taxes.
You also need to use "You're welcome" and, "I'm sorry" liberally.
My company has many foreign software engineers in Canada. Many of them are from India and came her after Trump 1 shut down the H1B visa program. Now those engineers are earning good money i Canada and paying Canadian taxes
Done. You're in. Seriously, it's not a perfect country, but it's pretty darn good. I've travelled all over (including living in the U.S.), and there's no place I'd rather be. Apply if you're interested. The big cities are expensive but have more opportunities. You need French if you want to move to Quebec. You can get a work permit if you want to try it out.
Thank you kindly, partner.
I don't suppose you know anyone hiring foreigners like myself? My own research into that didn't come up with much.
Just google full stack developer jobs canada.
I have. Didn't find much.
Market is over-saturated with devs at the moment North or South 🙁. SRE-style jobs is a lot less co.petitive if that's
I don't know maybe? I'm a frontend developer trying to become a fullstack developer. I could do DEVOPS but I'm trying to play into my strengths and I'm having to fight the clock until I become homeless. If a company hired me to train to become SRE I'd entertain it. I'm a builder by nature so I would like to keep creating code.
It's a tough time for jobs in general right now in Canada, especially in tech. Oversaturated market and AI disruption. Sorry guy
It's all right friend. I'm an American, I'm used to struggling.
Not all Canadians like watching sports, including hockey.
