Wanted to interview: American relocating to Canada for work

Submitted by on April 28, 2010 – 3:14 pm3 Comments

american-flagAre you an American who just moved to Canada for a job?

Or an American looking for work in Canada?

Then perhaps you can help with the following inquiry that I received today from a fellow journalist:

We’re working on a story about Americans who are interested in coming to Canada for career reasons. We’re looking to interview a professional who has either recently moved or is looking for a job in Canada, who works in banking, finance, law or a similar industry that was harder hit by the recession in the US than here. We’re looking for someone with no previous connection to Canada (isn’t married to a Canadian, doesn’t have family here), who is moving here simply for their career, because at the moment, Canada is offering more opportunities because of the relative stability of our economy.

If you — or any of your colleagues or friends — fit this profile, and you’d be willing to talk with a journalist about your experience, please let me know.

Either leave a comment below or e-mail me directly:  info [at] livingabroadincanada.com

Thank you!

    I am currently moving to Canada through my job as a transfer for most of the reasons mentioned above. I am open to speaking about it.

      Hi, Erica:
      Thanks for offering to help, but the journalist who made the initial inquiry was researching this story last year. Perhaps I should have removed this blog post? My apologies.

      Best of luck with your move. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you need help or advice.

      Regards,
      Carolyn
