Welcome to the Lemmy community for CS Career Questions Canada! This community is dedicated to helping those who have questions about working in the tech industry or in a CS/dev/programmer related job specifically in Canada.

We understand that many people are looking for alternatives to Reddit due to recent events. We hope that this community can serve as an alternative for those wishing to leave Reddit.

Our goal is to provide a supportive and informative community where you can ask questions about the Canadian job market, how to reach out and find people to participate at a tech event at your school as a CS student with little to no connections, and much more 13.

We hope that you find this community helpful and informative. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to post them here.

Thank you for joining us!

Searching for employment in Canada from USA? (midwest.social)
submitted 2 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

As y'all know, shit be going down in the US. And while I'm all for staying and fighting, my son comes first. I'm pretty familiar with Canadian culture, and my state borders y'all. I have an uncle from there Tok (just don't know where).

  1. I know it's super expensive, but if I had to guess thats based on population?

  2. I've got 12 years experience doing software development, Devops, system engineering, device engineering, with a BA in Computer Engineering. Are there certain companies to avoid? Certain companies/locations to check out? Salary isn't nearly as important as being able to afford living.

  3. I know some French and I am working on more. Is this helpful?

  4. Also, I need a bit of a kickstart to understanding the political landscape. We'll start with I'm pro-choice, an Ally, anti-gun, support democracy and love the ranked choice system, and subsidized healthcare. Taxes and the government work for the people.

  5. Work commutes? I've done hour long commutes, I've done bus commutes, Ive walked to work, driven, and remote, just need to know what to expect.

  6. I already say sorry for everything, any other cultural norms I should know about?

  7. Is it too obvious I'm panicked?

I'll have a live coding interview on Thursday but it's the first time that I'll have this kind of interview. The job offer is about node and nest js. I have 1.5 years of experience with Nodejs but no experience at all which NestJS. Any tips you can give me?
