    If I was you I would apply for the IEC in December\January when the program reopens
    Easy visa to get and a good way to dip your toes into Canada and see what you think

    I am on a one year visa (got in 2012) and now living in toronto since March.

    I couldn't really fault this city - it's great, and very multi cultural. I spent 8 weeks on holiday mode as i had a lot of savings, but got a few temp jobs as a receptionist and i am now in the job I have always wanted - pay is great and the perks are good too. I worked in a medical device company for 3 years and tried for the same job for 2 years (even though i am fully qualified) and got nothing internally, and the first job i applied for here that i was qualified for, i got within 2 weeks of applying.

    i find the Attitudes and life out here so much better than home, if i could move my family here it would be perfect.

    Maybe i was just lucky here, but i have no intentions of going back to Ireland in the next 5 years as i am well settled and I have also met a Canadian guy here, so i'm starting to think this is it for me!
