I think the ontario market is a bit slower too (like all markets across Canada).
There are quite a few job postings for technical support specialists in BC. Are all your computer skills up to date? Is your resume updated? Have you shown any employment counsellors in your area?

I have my resume changed to Canadian requirements. Attended the NOW (TDSB-Newcomer orientation for work) program. Applied to almost all the jobs related to my experience.Now I want to take up any suitable job immediately and look for the desired job later. I can think of taking up education only while I start earning Canadian money so for the moment I have no plans to study.
Thanks Mgupta and Morning Rain for the replies.

Hi Gupta,
Could you please let me know whom I should contact to know the details of free education and of getting eligible for it.I have checked OSAP and need to know more about it for my future reference.

I am trained only to manage office equipment and not diagnosis of PCBs to component level.
Can any one suggest something so that i can start some earning

Hey Raj,

Have you tried Xerox - Mississauga? I remember they were looking for so many ppl just before few months back. They were at HRDC jobfair and I felt they really need lot of people. Keep on trying at same location. U will get it once.

U can grow up with only experience you have. None employer want to hire you and train you. U know how experince is important - right.

Thanks LNP for the post.
I have submitted to Xerox- online and also at the downtown office in person.Received acknowledgements of my submission of resumes.I have also submitted at Canon- Online and at the downtown office. As suggested I would visit the Missisauga office in person and see if it helps out.
