I know someone trying to move from US and not getting any response... Recently there is a huge influx of people from US which is crowding the market.

Given that we hired someone in another country right before Covid hit, and we are still having a hell of a time getting him here... maybe being from the US is hurting you right now. It usually helps for experience points, but you’re an unknown - you probably can’t start as quickly as someone here, it might be harder for the hiring company to bring you in, US people usually have too high of salary expectations, and they might think you are at risk for leaving as soon as the US looks good again.

You have to network like crazy in Canada. It's a smaller more relationship driven market. Directly applying for jobs won't crack it. Used LinkedIn to reach out to people.

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
