I’m trying to move to Vancouver at the moment on a Working Holiday visa, but I’m getting instantly rejected after the CV & cover letter review on every application (that I definitely would have been qualified for). Is it likely to be down to the fact that I’ve stated I currently live in the UK and will be moving on a Working Holiday visa in my cover letter? Or am I being naive and actually it’s likely that my CV & cover letter are rubbish? Any advice massively appreciated, this is killing me!!

Likely the system is auto rejecting you based on your response for work authorization. Probably nobody is even reading the cover letter. Try changing your answers

Also try recruiters like Robert half that might have short term contracts

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
