@@lakshmianooplal7057 anytime. That was the baggage tier we purchased. According to my wife, she said she thinks she remembers that we could purchase it in tiers though.
Thanks! The job market... let's see. So depending on what type of jobs. If you're looking at the lower income, maybe jobs in restaurants, convenience stores, tech stores like Best Buy, and so on... those jobs keep rotating and might be easy to get after some waiting, handing out resumes, and visiting the place in person to give your resume to show your sincerity. If you mean corporate jobs, I heard from a friend who's VERY high up in corporate (think senior director level), that while Vancouver USED to be extremely open and welcoming, currently there is some anti-government sentiment, and hence this is spilling over into offering jobs to foreigners. They may not tell you to your face, but there are some internal reservations on hiring even PRs, or anyone who has no Canadian experience. My personal take is that this is normal with human beings and countries, we're all human, and we'll do what makes us comfortable. So I have nothing against them for that, but that's just what I heard from a local, who's a very good friend, in a very large company. As for startups, and entrepreneurship, no one really cares where you're from or who you are as long as you have the skills. I have personally found the most opportunity there, by joining business networking groups and networking sessions, with spiritual-minded, business people. I heard from a housemate who I was living with, that if you get a minimum wage job, and another friend gets an entry level corporate job, after all the taxes are done, the minimum wage person isn't earning that much lower than the corporate one, and the minimum wage one can be just 3 times a week, freeing up your time to do other things. Were you looking at any jobs in particular or any fields?
@@zephyrkhambatta Thanks for the Insight . I recently got a PR and coming to Vancouver next month on this same flight from Singapore to Vancouver . I cleared TEF canada (French Immigration exam). Also I have 3 years of experience in HR Recruitment and 4 years of experience in quality control at Verka (India - Panjab Govt) . However, I am also open to basic survival jobs initially.
@@divyakanwar2983 Nice, we could connect when you're here. Yes, totally understand. If your plan is to settle there, then the general advice I also got was to get whatever you can at the start. I think I found the right profile, have sent you a LinkedIn request. Happy to connect professionally. However, I also heard some advice from others who immigrated which was to not allow the "survival job" to take up the whole week, because otherwise you'll have no time left to build your actual career, unless you're open to new careers that stem from these survival jobs. Any particular place you're going to be in Vancouver? I started renting first at East 40th Avenue, then Richmond, and then I finally found a nice place in North Vancouver. I've met some decent landlords finally (I had some nightmare rentals too, which weren't very nice), and I could intro you to them. Just shoot me a mail at zephyr.swift@gmail.com if you're interested and we could go from there. Happy to help. Best of luck, and wishing you more success in your journey!
What I see onboard serve meal is little Singapore foods then half Canadians and then half were different parts of Southeast Asians. Do they speak Mandarin on board and do you see some AC's Cabin Crew were Singaporeans? Do you take a picture with AC's Cabin Crew? Thank you!
@@awyongleongsoo35 yes there was definitely a mix of cuisines. Yes they do have announcements in Mandarin I believe. Can’t be sure if it’s Mandarin or Cantonese, but there were some ladies who looked like they could speak Mandarin. One was Japanese I believe 🙂🫶🏼❤️🔥 I will try to take a picture on the next video!!!
