Hello Everyone. I’m new to Fishbowl.

I recently moved to Canada to pursue my Masters in civil engineering from the University of Windsor, ON. I graduated last year and have been looking for a full time opportunity in the field of civil engineering. I have 3 years of experience in project coordination and quality control.

I wish to seek guidance and referral to land a job in Ontario.

Ignore people like AD1, they’re just bitter. A lot industries hire based on their network of who they know. I’d suggest reaching out to people in the field and see if they’d meet for coffee.

Fall also is usually a slow hiring time but it picks back up in January. Best of luck out there!

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?

Curious to know what you've seen as working to non working dollars split in Canadian agencies. Reference any specific brands (or categories) if you can.

Hi! I have worked in management roles in tech, mainly in analytics, for approximately 10 years. My TC has fluctuated (currently around 135K CAD), but it seems like it's relatively easy to breach the 100K bar, but hard to breach the 150K bar. I now work at the CBC, but I have worked in the private sector too. What is the most realistic way to move to 200K? 1) Continue moving the ladder to a VP position, 2) Switch to Pre-Sale, 3) Switch to Consulting, 4) Work from a U.S. company from Canada.
