Combating Career Challenges – Helping Saskatchewan Newcomers Establish Stable Careers

Migration opens up new opportunities, while also signifying a significant change in one’s life. When moving to a new country, finding a job that aligns with a person’s skills and qualifications often stands as a significant hurdle. Saskatchewan, a prairie province in Canada famous for its construction and real estate sector, is not an exception. The struggle persists, despite the province’s plentiful opportunities.

The Struggles of Immigrants in Saskatchewan

According to a recent Pollara survey commissioned by CBC, 54 per cent of immigrants claimed that finding a job aligned with their career paths proved challenging. For those specializing in construction and real estate, integrating their skills and talents into Canadian business landscapes, norms, and practices can be demanding. Bridging these societal gaps is a gradual process, and immigrants require appropriate support during these periods.

Fortunately, multiple resources are available to help newcomers navigate this rocky terrain. Local organizations and programs, for instance, provide counsel, job search assistance, and personal development opportunities, all tailored to the specific needs of immigrants.

Community organizations play a pivotal role in newcomers’ journey, providing invaluable resources and guidance. Programs such as job search assistance, language classes, and cultural adaptation seminars significantly ease the transition period, helping immigrants utilize their skills and experiences for their professional development effectively.

Discussions and Adaptation – A Two-Way Street

Engaging discussions about immigrants’ experiences are instrumental in understanding their struggles in depth. Platforms like CBC Blue Sky play a significant role in this aspect, encouraging dialogue and spreading awareness about such challenges.
