    Hi everyone,

    So I'm thinking on heading to Alberta in June when I finish college. I'm wondering if anyone on here could advise me on whether Calgary or Edmonton would be best.

    I know its going to be a bit trickier trying to get a job due to the fact that I'm a new graduate. I do have 6 months experience.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    Trying either Calgary or Edmonton will be a good start for a Graduate. Better than Vancouver or Toronto anyway for what you are looking for.

    You should check out work in the more remote regions / cities. Fort McMurray, Fort Nelson, Grand Prairie Dawson etc.
    They are the places that cant get people so they are more likely to hire a Junior.

    Good luck
