“At MOSAIC, I learned everything about how to look for a job in Canada”

Employment Programs

MOSAIC offers programs and services to assist immigrants and refugees looking for work.

Our programs and services are free of charge, and available to immigrants and refugees eligible to work in Canada. Employment Insurance (EI) Recipients and Exhaustees receive priority.

“As an immigrant the process begins when you request to come here and ends when you finally settle down and integrate to the society. Integration is the hardest part when you try to figure out the new manners, rules and proper ways to ask for things on your own. MOSAIC Employment programs are really helpful at this point of your immigration process and can save you a lot of time in searching for a job. The people working in these programs are professionals and they show at every moment interest in helping you." ~Program participant

STAY ORGANIZED: Track your job search

  • Attach job posting, cover letter and resume together then file in a binder or folder. You may need to refer to this when an employer calls.
  • Have a pen and notepad ready to write down information an employer provides when calling to arrange an interview.
