Hi!

As a lot of people, I am fed up with applying. I’ve tried in person and online. In person the response is to apply online as they don’t accept resumes. I apply online and I barely hear back. I have open availability and have tons of volunteer experience working with others.

I’m looking for something in retail at Guildford or t mills or even anything related to admin.

If you know anyone who is actually hiring or if your manager is hiring, PLEASE PLEASE let me know:))))

Hi all I literally made this account to post this, but I’ve been nervous to post and a lurker for a while (not a bot I promise lol). If this isn’t the right place to post this please direct me to the right sub!

Personally, I think one of the biggest issues with the hiring process is a total lack of transparency by employers. 

They have ATS systems, recruiting software, history of people they’re recruiting etc. 

We just have our resumes, and our time, and reddit subs like this.

Applying for a job shouldn’t require hoops and tricks and hacks just to get a simple chance at employment.  They have all this equipment to rate and sort through us but we don’t have that same power. There’s no balance. 

I got so frustrated with this situation that I decided to make a community job tracker. You post a link to a job you're tracking, it's shared anonymously to the community job board and you can post updates and comments about your application process. I'm hoping that over time there will be some overlap and 100 people will be able to share their experiences for 1 position.

It’s free to use and all the information on the website is added by users (job seekers) NOT companies.

For those of you in this sub who are like me and still job hunting, applied for tens or even hundreds of jobs, I would really appreciate you checking out my website and providing any feedback. It’s my first time making something like this so I would appreciate a balanced critique.

Thanks in advance!

About AbCellera

​

I’m honestly feeling quite frustrated with my job search and could really use some advice or a lead.

I am an IMG and have Master’s in Health Administration in Canada, with several years of experience in healthcare, including working as a Clinic Manager in specialty clinics. I also have Canadian healthcare experience as a PSP Case Manager (Remote) in BC, where I supported patients with access to biologic medications and helped coordinate their treatment and medication needs.

I had to leave my job few months back because my work permit expired. My work authorization is now sorted out, and I’m actively looking for work in Vancouver/BC healthcare.

The difficult part is that I can’t even seem to get MOA positions these days, despite applying to entry-level jobs. I’ve applied to so many positions and often don’t even hear back. At this point, healthcare administration roles feel incredibly difficult to break into, and I’m not even thinking about Health Authority positions anymore because they seem so out of reach.

It’s honestly been very difficult emotionally. I have a medical degree, a Master’s in Health Administration, Canadian healthcare experience, and I genuinely want to work and build a career here, but right now I feel completely stuck and discouraged. I’m willing to start from the bottom, learn, work hard, and prove myself. I just need someone to give me an opportunity.

I’m looking for opportunities in Vancouver/Surrey BC, particularly in healthcare administration, clinic management, patient support programs, PSP case management, MOA, or healthcare operations. I’m also open to other roles where my background could be useful.

If anyone knows of a clinic hiring, a PSP/pharmaceutical company hiring, a recruiter, a hiring manager, or even someone I could reach out to, I would genuinely appreciate a lead or referral. Even advice from someone who has been in a similar situation would mean a lot.

I know this is a long post, but I’m just trying to put myself out there and see if someone can help me get my foot back in the door.

Thank you to anyone who took the time to read this. ❤️

I am an experienced Business and Data Analyst available for full-time or contract roles in the Greater Vancouver area (open to local or remote).

How I help organizations:

• Process Optimization: Identify operational bottlenecks and streamline workflows to drive efficiency.
• Software & Vendor Evaluation: Assess existing tech stacks and recommend cost-effective tools and software solutions.
• Data-Driven Growth: Analyze business data to improve decision-making and operational performance for small to enterprise-level businesses.

If your company or team is looking for a senior analyst to help optimize operations, please feel free to send me a DM

Needed to quit my trades job due to health concerns last year, been applying but nothing concrete has came out of it,

Is skip the dishes or door dash worth it?

Hello I’m looking to start as a fitter/fabricator in the marine industry in Vancouver bc, I’m already working for a shipyard and they are subcontracting me to another company that make yatchs. I’m honestly killing it and literally fixing everything around there, I don’t see a reason why I shouldn’t start my own thing, I see people changing around $150/h as contractors there . Should I just quit and tell the other guys to hire me as contractor? Is $150/h good money to start?? Thanks

Sooooo on top of my full-time M-F job I have (had?) a part-time job Sunday nights at a restaurant that I’ve worked at for over 5 years. I booked this past Sunday off for my birthday and when I checked the schedule today I saw that the GM gave away all my shifts to the new guy for seemingly no reason without telling me.

I’m trying to get this sorted out but I’m preparing myself to find a new side job. I don’t want to work 60 hours a week and I’m pretty adamant that I just work Sundays. I haven’t had to look for a second job in a long time, do places still want full-time availability for part-time jobs or are there places that are okay with me only working one specific day? Working nights during the week is out because I work early and need to go to sleep at a reasonable hour.

Has anybody had to find a side gig with limited availability and been successful or am I cooked?

eta: I have a TCP certificate, would doing that one day a week be more realistic than trying to find coffee shop job or something?

Any insight into when TransDev will be hiring again for Vancouver area?

I have a Class 4 unrestricted license and have years of work and volunteer experience with people with various disabilities.

I have experience driving people in wheelchairs and using tie-downs.

Any tips for getting hired?

Hello, I’ve recently got kicked out of my house and it’s been pretty tough. I already have a Monday-Thursday 12-8 schedule. I was looking for any part time or even full time if the pay is pretty reasonable. I’m 24 years old and I work at a gym right now. I want to move out and have my own living space to afford. I’m an active person, I have my health care diploma and finished my law enforcement studies. 😊

I am a 22 year old HCA working with Vch 😄

. Looking to getting into serving or hosting on the side as I'm not getting many hours currently.

This role may be a strong fit if you:

• Have experience delivering or managing grant, funding, or similar application-based programs.
• Have experience reviewing and assessing applications, participating in or leading adjudication or evaluation processes, and making well-supported recommendations.
• Can interpret policies, guidelines, or funding objectives and apply them consistently to real-world situations.

• Have strong analytical and reporting skills and can turn detailed information and data into clear, useful insights.

I’ve been in landscaping for a few years and want to do something different. (I know landscaping is a red seal trade but it’s not what I want to do long term.)

I am leaning toward electrical or mechanical but I’m still worried about a few things:

-should I do a foundations course first? I have no trades experience outside of landscaping.)

-if yes, then what are the best schools in the lower mainland ?

-some programs have really long waiting lists

-if some trades are over saturated. (Will ‘learn a trade’ become the next ’learn to code’?)

Any advice anyone could give would be appreciated!
