    Hi Olivia – are you aware of any job boards specifically for social services – more specifically somewhere to post jobs for qualified Child Welfare Representatives with court experience?

      Hi Manraj

      I would recommend using LinkedIn, company websites (identify your top target companies and bookmark their recruiting link on their website) and the better recruiting agencies (such as Robert Half for example). The job aggregating boards such as Indeed are good for these jobs as well.

      Best wishes for your job search!

    Is there any specific job site for procurement / supply chain jobs in Canada ?

    Reply
    • Karin Lewis says

      January 12, 2022 at 9:03 pm

      Hi Gautham, It seems to me that many of the Supply Chain positions are on Indeed (https://ca.indeed.com/jobs?q=Supply%20Chain&l=Ontario&mna=5&aceid&vjk=62e161d9a2eda206) and other general job boards, as well as LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/supply-chain-jobs/). The only specialized credible source seems to be https://www.supplychaincanada.com/careers — Supply Chain Canada is a professional association and has a list of jobs that are posted on its site. Best of luck with your job search!

  • Architectural services may only be offered through a Certificate of Practice issued by the OAA.
