Most newcomers wonder if it's hard to find job in Toronto. In reality, the Toronto is a very dynamic city, and the employee turnover rate here is extremely high. But you have to be very competitive to find a job easily.

You can easily check how many job are published in Toronto and compare with other Canadian cities. You will notice an enormous difference. If you sort jobs by city, you will notice most jobs are located in Toronto, then goes Vancouver, then Montreal, and then other cities.

All you need to find a job in Toronto is to find an advertised position that you really like, and send your updated resume and cover letter in a way specified by the employer. Make sure to do some online research and address your cover letter to the person responsible for hiring.

Use top job search websites and job search engines in Canada. There is no a unitary website in Toronto where all organisations advertise their jobs. There are multiple websites, some of them are general, others are related to a specific industry or sector. Some employers publish their jobs on their own company websites. There are 2 top job search websites that capture around 90 per cent of all the jobs in Canada, posted anywhere on other job boards or employers' websites. These websites are indeed.ca and simplyhired.ca. There is also eluta.ca that finds jobs only posted directly on employers' websites.

Cooperate with Toronto employment agencies. Their task is to serve the interests of the employer and not yours. Therefore they only look for top candidates. But if you create a compelling resume, and if you interview with these agencies really well,they will recommend you to an employer.

Toronto employment agencies always look for great candidates. If they have a position to fill, they usually start by checking their resumes database. If they don't find any good candidates, they go online!

Create a complete profile on linked.com. This is a career networking website that grows at an incredible speed. Your profile there will serve as your resume, and your business card. You'll want to join groups in Toronto in the key sectors that you would like to work in. You will also need to do some research to find industries you are interested in and articipate in the discussions in these groups.

Upload a long version of your resume on workopolis.com, monster.ca, job.com, and careerbuilder.ca. Many employment placement agencies in Toronto look for resumes using specific keywords. Make sure that this version of your resume contains many keywords and synonyms.

You should take interview with employment agencies seriously. I was able to find 2 jobs in Toronto with the help of job placement agencies!

Also, compile a directory of market sectors you are interested in, identify employers, find their websites, bookmark their "jobs" web pages and monitor them regularly. Most websites have a choice to sign up to new job postings using specific keywords, which means this way you can always know whenever a job you a interested in comes up.
