Job Opportunities in Canada for 2020-2021: Don’t Get Discouraged!

Before you start or continue your career – you need to be well prepared, evaluate your knowledge, skills and abilities to obtain a potential position that will bring you not only earnings but also satisfaction.

If Canada were a human, it would be the soul of the party, who knows everybody and makes everyone feel comfortable and respected. Canada is also well known for its one of the most humane social systems. Despite the social protection of the population, the state will not provide you with well-being and financial prosperity and will not find you the job of your dreams. That is why, before you start or continue your career – you need to be well prepared, evaluate your knowledge, skills and abilities to obtain a potential position that will bring you not only earnings but also satisfaction.

Therefore, let’s review what happened in the labor market in 2020 to understand in which direction to head in 2021. In the face of the pandemic, employment was able to show some growth and unemployment did not hit a critical level and by the end of November it was 9.6%.

The most popular online job search queries in Canada this year have been a Project Manager, Administrative Assistant, Account Executive, Software engineer and a Business Analyst. And the list of the most popular workers in vacancies for the last year is as follows:

  • Sales Associate
  • Driver
  • Receptionist
  • Welder
  • Web Developer
  • Business development manager
  • General laborers
  • Project manager
  • Heavy-duty mechanic
  • Merchandiser
  • Electrical engineer
  • Accountant
  • HR manager
  • Financial advisor
  • Registered nurse

 

It should also be noted the growing popularity of part-time job requests, as a common consequence of quarantine across the country. Therefore, if you have some earnings, but plenty of free time – then in 2021 you should pay attention to these opportunities, which, incidentally, are paid from 25 to 40 dollars per hour on average. By looking at a list of various openings of underemployed, you can find not a difficult but profitable niche for yourself, according to your skills and talents.

If your PC knowledge is not limited to the ability of turning on/off your laptop, create and save a file etc., then 2020-th brought good news for you, because the best things happened to IT specialists this year.

As expected, the main leap in job growth and the need for professionals was shown by the IT industry. In 2020, developers have been holding the top spot since last year. Project manager has moved from third to second, and quality assurance has moved from fourth to third. New entries for 2020 are senior software engineer, Network administrator and Technical support.

Keep in my mind that next year will show even greater demand in this area, so if you dream of working in the IT industry – you have enough time to take online courses or master the industry during quarantine and confidently move towards your goal with new skills next year.

So, at the end of this year, analyze your achievements, acquirements, successes, failures, draw conclusions, think about what should be changed and step optimistic into the new of 2021!
