Hey everyone! I came to Canada as an international student and am now on a work permit. I'm currently looking for a job as a software developer, specifically in the MERN stack or as a Java developer, but haven’t had much luck with getting interviews. Any tips or advice would be really appreciated! Thanks!

In Canada, when should one start looking for new grad positions for big tech companies if one is graduating in August 2025?

#

I admit that I didn’t check last couple of months. I checked last week, but don’t see 2025 new grad postings for big tech companies in Canada.

Are they already closed?

#

is it actually over the phone

it seems so unortho for me in the tech industry

She didnt even talk to me about Java apart from my familiarity

I have like 6 years + of java experience (not work) but havent touched it in like 2 years

#

after clearing google's onsite i've finally received a call from my recruiter telling me they're not going to process with my application, after a month of intense training now we rest, a bit frustrating bc im being rejected due to my experience and not my interview perf gladge

#

how is a new grad supposed to compete with a junior for an early career role lol

#

in term of career xp

#

good luck to everyone interviewing with google though L3 interviews aren’t really that hard if you train correctly (LC medium level questions are enough) most important thing is to practice and do mocks with experienced engineers they mostly want to see how you think and work rather than your pure lc solving abilities

humble aurora
#

when did u schedule onsites after the recruiter call?

lofty sapphire
#

3 weeks after the call

#

from application to rejection call it took over 3 months

brisk gate
#

wait what do you mean you were rejected due to your experience, could you provide more insight to this if youre comfortable sharing

lofty sapphire
#

well I don't really have more insight since the recruiter did not shared much info. I've just been notified that I had an experience gap compared to other candidates

#

it was for an early career position, I have 0 YOE with 2 internships and ok tier projects, nothing crazy

#

"Experience gap" could refer to anything but I'm pretty sure it was not due to my interviews perfs based on the dozen of mocks I've done with google engineers

brisk gate
#

Sorry to hear that, did you make it through the hiring committee or was your packet sent to them in the first place? If not that sounds like your recruiter did not have confidence in you which is up to them afaik

humble aurora
lofty sapphire
lofty sapphire
#

wouldnt recommend to delay too much because the more you wait the less team matching options you'll have

humble aurora
#

what do u think is the longest delay that is reasonable

lofty sapphire
#

and eventually more competition

humble aurora
#

is 3 weeks considered quick or long

brisk gate
#

pray you dont have to do a tech screen 💀

#

its been 2 months since my recruiter first reached out to me and i have onsites in a couple of days

lofty sapphire
#

Can't say that, I asked to my recruiter when they would start the interview loops, scheduled mine a week after the start date

brisk gate
#

good luck salute , you can always try next year or even next next year if they hire then. They seem to accept L3 for up to 2yoe

lofty sapphire
#

thanks! I'll keep working on my problem solving skills and hope I can find a job to gain enough exp :)

humble aurora
brisk gate
#

so essentially i got a reach out but my recruiters earliest available time to call was a very long way out

humble aurora
#

oh ok

brisk gate
#

after that, I had to do a tech screen which seems to be to the discretion of the recruiter

#

of which then i could finally do my finals

humble aurora
#

im basically asking cuz i got and completed the oa friday, getting the recruiter call tuesday, and am thinking what is the latest i should do my onsites without sacrificing headcount and team matching

brisk gate
#

im assuming this is for 2024 canada? since:
1.were in the canada chat
2. 2025 canada isnt out yet

humble aurora
#

2025

#

2025 us

brisk gate
#

ah

#

imo dont worry about headcount cause its for a new year

#

but doesnt hurt to ask

#

gl salute

humble aurora
#

to you too

#

u got this

#

where do u wanna be

#

waterloo or mtl

brisk gate
#

i have a friend in cali whos team is hiring so either waterloo or on his team

humble aurora
#

okok

brisk gate
#

ive already asked my recruiter if i could potentially match in the states since im a canadian citizen

humble aurora
#

u can

#

same thing the other way

brisk gate
#

but obviously means nothing if i dont pass finals

humble aurora
#

i wanna match canada

brisk gate
# humble aurora u can

i can but need approval since i was only asked for waterloo/montreal location preference

humble aurora
#

makes sense

#

im in the us loop but they told me i can match for canada

#

its part of the same thing

brisk gate
#

theres an option where it asks if:
you are allowed to work in the country (lets say usa)
but if you dont select that option, you are forced to pick that you need sponsorship

#

even though as a canadian citizen, you arent required to have it

#

so probably why they assumed many canadian appliers are canada only or if the candidate technically lied during the application process

#

application might be the same but keep in mind. all canadian students need to be sponsored to work in the usa for internships

#

it is not the same as if you are a canadian citizen finding a full time job int the usa

humble aurora
#

why does it matter intern vs ft? both still need a work visa for us no? its just a diff visa type

brisk gate
#

For TN I can apply by myself given I have an offer or something like that

#

Students and the other visa need to be sponsored

#

Correct me if I'm wrong

humble aurora
#

they sponsor tn as well tho no?

pseudo wedge
lofty sapphire
#

Not really a big deal, I wasn’t good enough compared to other candidates I guess, I will keep practicing! It’s just frustrating to not have feedbacks when you did not performed poorly…

brisk gate
#

i mean any company thats willing will do it

#

but if a company isnt willing to sponsor, then you have a workaround

#

Did someone hear back from Capital One

steep crow
#

Based on my experience, it seems that Canadian companies prefer hiring foreign STEM professionals over domestic grads and professionals because they receive government funding to do so. I've heard that this funding helps companies reduce liability since it’s harder to verify foreign work histories, and it ultimately gives these candidates an advantage, as they come with financial incentives attached. Does anyone know more about these types of grants and what specific programs they fall under? I heard about something called the "newcomer grant," but I'm not sure if that’s the actual name.

the company must pay like 10k to the govt, 10k+ to lawyers to file the application, go through audits and then maybe after 5 months get a high wage stream approval,

The many of these are inter company transfers when an employee is moved to Canada

ur orginal point

H1B visa is mostly given to Indians

safe light

then this doesn't make sense

drifting shore

"immediately"

for the Indians to be on the H1b / STEM OPT etc they would have graduated from the USA

Yes?

also this is a far jump from ur orginal point

I see several Indians who graduate from India work in India for several years and then suddenly get hired in Canada

which is the canadain goverment

is giving money

Yes, they give money to companies that hire foreign STEM professionals to reduce liability of unverified work experience

but what u are talking about now

none of what ur saying makes any sense

Why would a company hire a foreign mid level dev over a Canadian mid level dev

like u linked two dead pilot programs

this litterally does not happen

#

Instead of just saying the opposite point send me a link

safe light
#

the only way a company is doing that is if it's an internal transfer

i litterally sent u a link

steep crow
#

That's LMIA not related to the IRCC or the IRAP program

there were 22 work permits given to software engineers through LMIA in Q2 2024

i don't think u understand how this works

do u understand u need work authorization from the govt to work in Canada?

No shit. The pilot program might be dead but the people who came through it are still here and they do come with attached subsidies

when companies want to save money @lost lark
They just hire the entire team in india or vietnam,

No company that wants to save money is paying 10k for lawyers and 1k for govt fees.

There are exemptions outside of FAANGs etc

like stripe or whatever might be willingto spend that money

plus like the wage has to be higher than the median wage for that job as well
