What is the Job Bank?

The Job Bank is a Government of Canada website that contains job postings from across Canada and information on the current labour market.

The Job Bank can help connect you as a job seeker with employers in many industries. It is a central place many employers post; you can trust that the jobs posted here are real. You can also access labour market information on careers, including educational requirements, wage rates, duties, current job trends, etc. All of this information is free.

How do I use the Job Bank?

You can use the job search features to help you find jobs in your area. You can filter by conditions of employment (day or night shifts), language requirements and salary expectations. You can also exclude types of employment, like placement agencies or jobs intended for students, and you can pick categories specific to your experience.

Job Bank Features

The Job Bank has some tools to help you look for a job. You must sign up for a Job Bank account to access some of these tools.

Career Planning - Get more information about careers, such as wages, education requirements, skills needed and job prospects.
Job Alerts - Receive notifications about new job postings daily based on your preferences.
Job Match – Know which job postings match your skills, experience and location. Employers can invite you to apply for postings based on your profile.
Resume Builder - Build a resume based on a professional template that profiles your education, skills, and experience.

Features for Newcomers

If you are new to Canada, you can look for jobs specifically targeted to newcomers.

This feature of the Job Bank identifies employers that support the integration of newcomers and refugees into the social and labour market. This means they help you access community resources, language training, and skills training. They also provide diversity and cross-cultural training to create a welcoming work environment in their organization.

Many community agencies provide employment services for newcomers to Ontario, and even more agencies provide services to all community residents. To find help, go to Services Near Me and search for "employment services" in your area.
