The questions people ask first when they are new to Canada, answered on the job itself when the employer tells us.

  1. See what a job really pays a month

    Hourly pay is hard to compare. When a posting gives its pay and hours, you see an estimate for the whole month, before tax.

Straight answers to the questions people ask before their first job search in Canada.

I'm new to Canada with no Canadian experience. Can I still apply?

Yes. Filter by career stage, from internships and co-ops to entry-level roles and roles for experienced professionals, to find postings that match where you are. Some employers also mark postings that explicitly welcome new immigrants.

See jobs that welcome newcomers

Does it cost anything to look for work here?

Nothing. Creating a profile, uploading your resume, applying to jobs and getting alerts are all free, and always will be. Employers pay a small fee per posting. You never do.

Do I need to upload a resume for every job?

Just once. Upload it (PDF, DOC or DOCX, up to 5 MB) and every application uses it automatically, or swap in a different one for a specific role whenever you want.

How do I hear about matching jobs first?

Your alerts run off your profile: the categories you choose, the provinces you'll work in, your keywords and your skills. When a match goes live you get an in-app notification, plus an email if you want one, instantly or as a daily digest.

Who gets to see my resume?

Only the employer or recruitment agency behind a job you applied to, and only the copy you sent them. It's never publicly listed, never searchable, and only reaches signed-in owners of that posting.

Can I withdraw an application?

Yes. While an application is still marked "Submitted" you can withdraw it yourself from your Applications page.

How do I post a job in Canada on Newcomer?

Create a free employer account, write your posting and publish it. Drafts are free; you pay when you publish, and the posting goes live as soon as payment clears. It then appears in search and in job alerts for people looking for work in Canada, and renews until you cancel. Recruitment agencies use an agency account and post under each client's name.

How much does it cost to advertise a job?

Employers pay $14.95 + GST per posting per month (5% GST is $0.75, so $15.70 CAD in total). Recruitment agencies posting for clients pay $9.95 + GST per posting per month ($10.45 CAD in total). There are no setup fees, no per-applicant fees and no contract. Job seekers never pay.

See employer pricing

Can I use a posting for LMIA recruitment advertising?

Newcomer is a Canadian job board, and every posting has a printable record of advertisement. Use Print on the posting page: the record shows the job advertisement, the date it was posted, how many days it has been published up to the date printed, its status (for example "Active until cancelled"), the date printed and the web address where it is advertised. You can keep that record with your recruitment file. Newcomer is not a government service; whether your advertising meets the requirements of a Labour Market Impact Assessment is decided by Employment and Social Development Canada, so check the current rules on canada.ca.

How do I promote my vacancies to newcomers?

Post the job on Newcomer and say who it welcomes: new immigrants, refugees, youth, Indigenous people or professionals, whether experience is needed, and which languages are used at work. Job seekers can filter by exactly those facts, and new postings reach matching job alerts. We only show what you choose to state.
