Glad to see you reaching out to help people navigate the job application process through this informative and motivational video. I especially liked what you said at the end about the need to keep applying. Very inspirational, and it was something I needed to hear. Thanks, Frank! 👍
You're welcome glad to hear it may have been what you needed. Won't lie - last few weeks been rough for me personally, so making this vid felt really good. Thanks for commenting as always.
Man, first off, love your video, I know this is your first comment in 6 months, but I am 17 (turning 18 by the end of the year), matter of fact just graduated in June, and am interested in the government, not even sure exactly what sector, but I just need help for my general search, and maybe how to check the private sector, thanks.
Hey, thanks! I'm not entirely sure what your question is, but check the GoC website to get an idea of the different areas within the government. For private sector, you can use LinkedIn to search for different jobs as well. Hope this helps, if you have further question, don't hesitate to shoot me a DM
Hi Frank, Stumbled upon your video and had a question. Made it through the application process and even all second language requirements earning a BBC. I’m not in 3 pools for AS-01 as an external candidate. It’s been a couple months now since I’ve been in these pools and I guess I’m wondering if there’s anything I should do from here? Should I keep applying? Should I be reaching out to anyone? Just starting to lose hope at this point, as I feel like I’ve done everything right to get to where I am now. Some advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!
Hey, thanks for reaching out. First, good on you for applying to multiple roles. I would continue applying for other pools/roles, while waiting for the results from your previous applications. The results (aka. the recruiters reaching out) are out of your control unfortunately - only thing you can control is your willingness to apply. Keep your heads up, when applying into the public sector, it's a LONG waiting game. Best to almost 'detach/forget' IMO to give you peace of mind moving forward. You got this! -Frank
Hi Frank, Thank you for this video. I have a question. When I apply for jobs, I always choose only full-time permanent tenure. But I wonder if selecting all the options, like Temporary 3-6month and the rest, gives me more chances to get a job? If the department wants to hire someone for a year, with a possible permanent offer after a year, they will skip me if I didn't Select a one year term option, right? Just wonder if I'm missing out on opportunities. Thank you!
Hi. I personally agree with your approach of only selecting permanent positions (under the assumption you're already holding a job). Sure, you may have a better shot applying to both perm + temp positions, but IMO - rather just select what you want, which sounds to be a perm. position. Hope it helps, but it really depends on your circumstance. Thanks!
If you have any questions, please reach out. Otherwise leave a funny emoji ✌
