Hire an international student
Did you know international students may be eligible to work in Canada?
International students have a lot to offer Canadian employers. Introducing an international student to your company can help create a more culturally-diverse organization that is representative of the Canadian population. They can also bring an international perspective to problem-solving, the ability to speak multiple languages, and can fill the gap for skilled workers that might not be able to be filled by Canadian graduates alone.
Details:
- Full-time international students can work up to 20 hours per week while they study
- In some cases, they can work full-time during the months of May to August
- They can also work in Canada up to three years after graduation
