Finding a good job can be one of the most difficult "jobs" for people. Lets start a mass resource thread for all the unemployed TAs (and employed for that matter) looking a new job.
If you come across news of job fairs, job postings, work links or miscellaneous information please post! The more resources available the better.
Any TAs who do have a job and can help out by posting job oppotunities at their workplace will also be helpful.
-------------------------------
Here's a couple tips:
1. Next thursday there is a job fair at the metro convetion centre. (Wil post more info once i get the flyer)
2. For students here is a tip: The TTC hires students for summer jobs that are easy and pay pretty well. Send an email to Miriam at [email protected] explaining that you are a college/universty student looking for employment.

Well, since this war started, my place isn't hiring AT ALL. Which is weird, cause usually they have a peice of paper posted with even like 1 position that they may need to fill. Once things pick up again, I'm sure the "Job Openings" sheet will appear again and I'll post it on here :)
By the way, I work at Marriott Hotel right beside Eaton's Centre. |

What's the difference between a woman and a walrus?
One of them has whiskers & blubber, and the other one is a walrus.

www.workopolis.com did the trick for some friends of mine as far as jobs are concerned. |

well, different full-time and part-time jobs; anything from Front Desk attendant, to housekeeping, to banquets, restaurants or kitchen (either cook, or a person to clean dishes). Contract jobs were there as well. |

finding a summer job is such a hassle
Im not sure if they've done the hiring or not, but the Metro Toronto Zoo always highers tons of people around this time. Its just a one day mass hiring day where you fill out an application and get interviewed on the spot. I went last year I didn't get the job I wanted because I had no customer service experience :rolleyes: and I refused to work at a food place there :p
But my gf and a friend of mine worked there and they said the money was really good...you get tons of shifts. My gf made something like $3000 - 4000 from working weekends from april - june, then full time july - august. |

well, Wonderland is always hiring.
Now, if you haven't worked there - this is a once in a lifetime thing that everyone should do. The work itself pretty much sucks, but the perks are good. Free access, free tix, "free" food ;) no line up for ANY ride. But dear god help you if someone throws up...:nervous: |
