Starting a new life in Canada is a big adventure!
You might feel excited, but also a little nervous. If you love marketing and are eager to apply the skills, education, and valuable marketing experience you have, Canada is a place where you can grow and do amazing things.
But sometimes, finding the right job can be hard. You might wonder, “What is different marketing in Canada?” or “How can I meet new people in the industries or places that I want to work?” You may also think about things like, “What are the rules in Canadian offices?” or “How do people work together here?”. Don’t worry—you’re not alone!
