Toronto ad fish 🤠 I’ve spent most of my career working as a copywriter in London (6 years here, 2 years Toronto) and the market is pretty different here. I’m planning on moving back home but wondered….how do you find work in Toronto? Agencies barely post openings, is the recruiter scene strong? Is it mostly who you know?

… helpful.
Struggle to see the other side of the argument: “how dare you flaunt the opportunity for a job during this time where jobs are needed.”
How dare they….try to hire for a role they need?
I can’t see how you can argue this is tone deaf.
Now, I can see the case that the current merger uncertainty (assuming this is the context) is getting to make recruitment harder.
I think if an agency has just laid off a bunch of roles and then posts hiring notices for those exact same roles, then the people that were let go are justified in feeling a certain way. Beyond that, no.
Totally agree. We are not one of those agencies.
In what world is it tone deaf to post job openings?
We need every milligram of hope possible. And people need jobs to feed themselves and their families.
The only tone deaf things being posted is when people comment on how this is a good thing for the industry or how people losing their jobs should see the opportunity in it and how great this is for them.
If you’re posting job openings because you have job openings, then that is helpful.
If you’re flexing that you have job openings in a time where everyone is laying off people, then that’s tone deaf.
The intention and the way your post is conveyed is what matters.
Thanks for the input everyone.
