I've never been there myself, but you can try having a look at www.employmentnews.com. They've also got a free newspaper in 5 editions that can be found just about anywhere (on the streets, in stores, etc.) and comes every Sunday.


Here are some employment resource centres featured in there that might help you:


  • Microskills Employment Resource Centre, 1 Vulcan St., Near Belfield
  • Seneca College Yorkgate Employment Resource Centre, 1 Yorkgate Blvd. Yorkgate Mall, 2nd Floor, Jane & Finch
  • Etobicoke South Employment Resource Centre, 2930 Lakeshore Blvd. West, at Islington
  • New Era Employment Services, 5353 Dundas St. West, Suite 502
  • Rexdale Youth Resource Centre, 1530 Albion Rd., Albion Centre, Unit #5, Albion & Kipling, HRDC Specialized Services
  • Employment Resource Centre - Rexdale, 1620 Albion Rd., 2nd Floor, Albion & Finch
  • Women's Enterprise and Resource Centre (WERC), 7 Vulcan St., Etobicoke


Two more things:
-Discount Car and Truck Rentals has positions for F/T Car Jockey in East Mississauga, Etobicoke, and East York.

-Black's Photography is looking for F/T and P/T Sales Associates at the Colossus Centre in Woodbridge.

(PM me for further details, or just ask me to post it on here, if anyone is interested.)


All of which reminds me that I'm off to work shortly...

Isn't there any place where u can go that help u find a new/better jobs that really does not ask much from you? ie. Experience n shit?

Look for a job in another market?

And yeah, Workopolis and Monster are shit sites when it comes to finding solid jobs if you don't have any experience or not enough of it. The entry positions that require some or no experience at all either pay like $6.85/hr or get ten thousand applications so your chances of getting through are like winning a lottery. While those other positions require you to have a degree and a few years of experience before they will even read your resume, so some of us without a degree (yet) are just stuck in the middle!

So, what do you do? You either lie on your resume or go start up your own business and get some experience that way... and then re-apply for those jobs 3-4 years later.

Ah, how could I forget? There's always the HRDC Job Bank. ::Job Bank - Ontario:: I have family and friends who have used it and had good results. There are jobs of pretty much any level, including those that require no experience. It's a good tool indeed.

I have never used these myself, but you can also try www.hotjobs.ca and www.workwanted.ca.

Yup I did that, I started my own business, although its slow I got my first client, did some work for her, but its not enough work to make some decent cash now, hopefully this is how I'll get more clients(you do a good job someone then they will refer you to anohter person and so on)...I HOPE THIS WILL BE THE CASE

I've learned first hand that networking and word of mouth are a great combination and go a long way in increasing your clientelle. The two, especially the latter one, have played a huge role in providing me with work. Hopefully that client of yours will spread the word about the work you've done for her.

Those sites are crap. Unless you want to hassle applying for a job that 1000 other people have applied for.

If anybody wants a summer job and they live in Missisauga and have their own transportation to work (near Clarkson Go-Station) I can refer you to a job I did a while back it paid $15 to $20 per hour (at least it did 5 years ago). The job is outdoors, but not doing hard labour (although it will require a little bit of effort/organization). The owner of the company likes me (I still talk to him) and as long as you don't screw up my reputation and piss my friend/old boss off - you could get a job starting in May.

PM me if you want info on this. BTW - you have to show up by 7AM (monday to friday) and you'll end by 4pm (at the latest) every day.

Same crap as Workopolis/Monster websites... some internal job postings would be more appreciated.
