Getting there

How to prepare

A short plan for this career fair, based on its format, audience and details.

Before the fair

  • Use a Canadian-format resume: no photo, no date of birth, and results written as short bullet points.
  • Check the official page for the list of employers attending, then pick 3 to 5 you most want to meet.
  • Prepare a short way to explain your international experience in terms Canadian employers recognize, such as team size, budgets or results.
  • Know your work authorization status and how to describe it clearly, for example open work permit or permanent resident.
  • Practise a 30-second introduction: who you are, what you do well and the kind of role you want next.
  • Check how to get to Living Arts Centre, where to park and how long the trip takes, so you arrive calm.
  • Update your resume so the top third shows the roles and skills you want to talk about at this fair.

At the fair

  • Arrive by 9:45 a.m., about 15 minutes before the start, when lines are short and employers are fresh.
  • Open with your 30-second introduction, then ask what the team is hiring for right now.
  • After each conversation, write down the person's name, the role you discussed and what to follow up on.
  • Ask employers which Canadian credentials or experience matter most for the roles you want, and note their answers.

What to bring

  • Printed copies of your resume, more than you expect to need (10 to 20 for a large fair).
  • A charged phone with your LinkedIn profile or portfolio ready to show.
  • Copies of any Canadian credential assessments you have, such as an ECA report.
  • A pen and a small notebook, or notes on your phone, to record names and next steps.

After the fair

  • Send a short thank-you email within 24 hours to each person you spoke with, and mention something from your conversation.
  • Apply online to the roles employers pointed you to, and mention that you met them at the fair.
  • Connect on LinkedIn with a short note reminding them where you met.
