Why should International Students move to Canada? - RUJU BHATT (Product Owner, CSPO®)07 Mar 202100:31:23

In this episode of Wisen Up podcast, we have turned the tables a bit as our host Ruju is being in turn interviewed and rightly so as Ruju embodies yet another story of a successful immigrant who was once just as unsure and insecure as any newcomer is.

In today's podcast, our guest gets candid about her journey from the time she took the decision to move to how everything started progressively falling in place.

As someone who once started as a junior quality analyst in her hometown after finishing her Engineering degree, she is happy she took the leap of faith and started her second degree as a student in Canada.

Currently, after almost a decade of being an immigrant, she is working as a successful product owner and with the insights she has provided in the episode, she was recently #promoted.

Please tune in to know and learn from her journey of moving to Canada.

When should I move to Canada? - JACQUELINE HU (Talent Management)12 Jan 202100:38:38

💆‍♀️🏖Jackie took her first break in her corporate career after landing in Canada. (#wisenup). She moved with her husband and little daughter and enjoyed dropping and picking her up from school. #canadajobs

💥How did she manage to land her HR manager position without any Canadian experience, certifications or Education?

💥What government employment agencies did she seek help from?

While Jacqueline might throw away all her credit to her luck, one has to give kudos to Jackie and her husband for managing almost everything that is essential to initially living in a foreign country, going with the flow and not stressing about subjects that do stress many. 

From smoothly landing a job after just two interviews (which is very rare) to buying a house in just two years of living in Canada, Jackie has it all covered.

We all love a good story. We love learning from other's mistakes. We innately know we don't have to reinvent the wheel. Our guest today has mastered this art of learning from others. He contacted his peers and seniors who made the trip to Canada before him. He joined online groups and forums to listen to what others had to say.

He decided he would take charge of his future and not rely on any consultant. He learned from the best practices he saw online. He was determined, focused and strategic in how he spent his time and what job searching activities he invested his energy into.

The result? He arrived in Canada with a signed offer letter and started working right away. So what did he do differently? Tune in to find out Trinadh Moganti's independent journey of moving to Canada with ease.

What are the challenges in moving to Canada? - SAM THOMAS (Real Estate Investor, Banker)12 Jan 202100:25:00

Sam is a banker with RBC now and he started his Canadian journey working at Whole foods. :)
For a lot of immigrants and especially the ones who have already had well-established careers in their countries, moving to a new country means reworking for previously obtained achievements.

For someone like Sam, who has had multiple job profiles, restricting himself to a particular job profile got tricky. But a few years down the line, he managed to achieve what every immigrant's ideal life looks like.  

Tune in to understand the choices he made to make his moving to Canada journey accommodate his requirements.

She teaches you how to ask professionals/hiring managers working in the industry for coffee chats which exponentially increases your chances of landing your dream job!

"CEO's tend to make time to talk to students and inspire the next generation. " says Pat so use the opportunity before you graduate :)

Nav and his wife landed in Canada right before the pandemic.

They built their own company while in Hong Kong and in spite of many challenges sold it before moving to Canada

They landed in Canada and lost all their employment opportunities thanks to COVID.

In spite of all that, they have built a Youtube channel with over 140k subscribers and have launched their own Job Accelerator program to help Canadian Newcomers find their first job faster and easier.

I love their passion, spirit and energy with which they breeze through life. Both of them invest 40 hours of work into their day job and 20 hours of work into their Youtube channel and coaching program.

We have huge respect for their focus and creativity in solving the pain points of Canadian Newcomers and especially Nav's ability to wake up at 4 am everyday to work on his passion.

Nav is working at Walmart in Marketing and we want to congratulate him for his recent promotion.  Nav's better half works in software and app development.

From the Author

https://www.amazon.com/Canada-Countdown-How-immigrate-ebook/dp/B00DP4DOGU/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&qid=1617806651&refinements=p_27%3ANick+Noorani&s=books&sr=1-5&asin=B00DP4DOGU&revisionId=&format=2&depth=1

You could actually call Canada Countdown a prequel to Arrival Survival Canada, which is now in its third edition published by Oxford University Press and is a Canadian best-seller. While that book goes into everything you need to know in your first year after coming to Canada, this book concentrates on how to get here, and some of the initial steps you need to take before and after you land.


Skilled workers want to migrate to Canada but have to pay consultants' exorbitant fees. The horror stories of some of these consultants are legendary with some victims paying huge fees and never ever getting to see their dream home!

I wanted to create a level-playing field for prospective immigrants. I wanted to write a book that would be a quick and simple read for immigrants who could use the information to apply to Canada themselves.
