Career Advice Seeking for career opportunity in Canada.

[Valerij]

Hello everyone. I'm lightning technician from Lithuania with 2 years of experience. Also I've got high-scalers and electricians certificate. Recently I've received permit to live and work in Canada, so I'm looking for a career opportunity there. I just need some useful information about job opportunities, company names or just any helpful leads. I haven't chosen city yet but I'm thinking about Toronto or Vancouver. So I would appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!

I would check out the stagehands union in Toronto, I.A.T.S.E #873 or the one in Vancouver I.A.T.S.E #118.

Check out their websites to get information about them and how to get onto their lists.

Do you know French? Depending on where you go you will need to know French to get work.

If you speak French the Montreal local is a very good one, if you feel like you're qualified to make a very good pyro technician contact me in the PM and I'll give you the contact info for a fantastic company.
