THE
IMMIGRANT'S TALE:
Developing
a professional life in Canada can be full of mystery for a lot international
students who graduate through Canadian university with no work experience due
to the fact that they do could not participate in co-op nor apply for a work
permit allowing them to seek employment outside campus. Thanks to Chretien this
law of denying work permits to international students before they find employment
has been altered. Navigating life after school however is still full of hurdles,
especially when you are isolated from family and people who could direct your
steps. For all such students and young professionals I recommend Integration Resource
Canada. Naomi and Bruce have a passion for helping people who have recently
migrated to Canada to find their place in Canada. It was during one of my coffee
shop visits with Naomi that I started to consider embarking on my journey to
chartered accountancy. I expect I am not home free yet, there will be bumps
along the way but I know I will have Naomi encouraging me and teaching me the ropes along the way.
Thank you for the kind comments, Christine.
