    I'm looking for contacts in Canada in IT, trying to secure work from Ireland in Canada and without contacts and introductions it's nearly impossible.


    If you know of anyone in the IT industry over there who might have some pointers or be recruiting I would appreciate it.

    Any help welcomed.

    What is your visa status and what kind of IT work are you after?

    No visa but looking at something like qualifying under the SINP* Skilled Workers Category under the National Occupational Classification (NOC) 0213 Computer and information systems managers.

    Systems Architecture, Solutions Architecture, Disaster recovery, IT management type roles.

    *That's for Saskatchewan but other provinces have similar

    I'll check my contacts and get back to you,
    I know a guy in Saskatoon who is recruiting IT staff heavily.
    Let me dig out his contact and see if he is still hiring

    I will also be heading over that way soon and I just graduated from college with a degree in Multimedia Applications Development but would be happy to land anything IT related if there is anything available.
