By tapping into the full range of resources at your disposal, you increase your chances of finding qualified, experienced staff while also boosting your employer profile.

Career Fairs

Primarily held by high schools, colleges, universities and community organizations, career fairs offer you the opportunity to promote current and ongoing job opportunities and meet with job seekers face-to-face. Explore how to maximise these events.

Third-Party Agents

A good resource when considering hiring newcomers to Canada or temporary foreign workers, qualified third-party agents can ease you through the recruitment process. Find out more about the types of agents available and the services they typically offer.

Other Recruiting Resources

From the latest job websites and online career networking tools to old standbys like employee referrals and applicant drop-ins, learn more about the many ways you can connect with potential employees.

Targeting Specific Demographic Groups

In addition to advertising through as many channels as possible, make sure you look at a range of potential employees. While the youth demographic is still a mainstay for tourism employers, today's smaller generation of young people means labour groups such as mature workers, newcomers to Canada, persons with disabilities, and Aboriginal workers are being actively sought as alternate recruitment sources. Discover how to reach these growing sources of employees through programs and resources tailored to their characteristics.
