CITY JOB OVERVIEW

The City Job program is one of our most popular choices amongst candidates as it allows you to spend up to one year (2 years for certain countries) working in and exploring Vancouver and is open year round.

Participants are guaranteed a work placement and are given full orientation, 1 nights hostel accommodation, interview preparation sessions, resume revision and visa support along with various other perks and optional add-ons. By participating in the program, you have the best chance to explore one of the most vibrant and energetic cities in the world.

Vancouver has a lot to offer and has year round amenities and attractions from world class ski hills, warm beaches, hundreds of hiking treks, top shopping districts and a bustling nightlife. It’s not every city that can claim to have a living rainforest within walking distance from the beach or 10 minutes from an Olympic Ski hill. Therefore, it doesn’t come as much of a shock when it is consistently ranked amongst the top cities to live in.

Vancouver has a thriving tourism sector so there are always jobs on offer in Hospitality, Food & Beverage and Retail along with multiple other areas. This once in a lifetime experience lets you immerse yourself in Canadian culture, make lifelong friends, maybe learn how to Ski or snowboard and all the while earn money to pay off bills and fund your adventure!
