This service is similar to a classified section in a newspaper. We do not screen employers or applicants, and any arrangements made are between you and the employer.

Most of the jobs are now posted directly by employers. Please be understanding of any typos. If there is an error that interferes with applying for the position, such as an incorrect fax number or email address, please call us at 334-3119, and we will try to track down the correct information.

Safe Job Searching

To find a job today we do a lot more internet surfing and emailing than walking, telephoning, faxing, or mailing. Online job searching may be faster and easier, but it can be riskier too. Misuse and theft of your personal information is always a possibility, so protect it by not posting it online, or sharing certain information in person or over the telephone until you’ve signed the job contract. Pay attention to these details:
 

Personal Information

Never include the following information on your resume or any other correspondence with a potential employer:

• birth date
• social insurance number
• marital status
• age
• driver's license number
• health card number
• personal identification numbers (PIN)
• banking or credit card information
   

First Contact

Perhaps you’ve found a job posted online in another province or country that offers more money or benefits than usual for the position. Be suspicious if the email address does not include a company name. Before you apply, check the company website. If you can’t find the website, contact a similar employer in the same location. Ask questions about the employer such as: Does the company exist? What kind of reputation does it have?
 
Perhaps you’ve made contact by telephone to a potential employer who asks you for money to apply. Don’t do it. Only employment agencies are paid when they have found someone a job, and only by employers.
 

The Interview

Before you consent to an interview, find out as much as possible about the employer, especially if job details are missing in the ad. If an interview is offered:

• Inform a friend or relative where you are going and when you expect to return.
• Meet at the employer's place of business or at an appropriate public place.
• If the interviewer questions you about personal matters unrelated to the job, decline to answer.
• Decline an offer of alcohol or anything else that would affect your behavior.

Remember: Never give a prospective employer personal information or financial details until you start the job.

 

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
