Our Story

24 Years of Canadian Employment

In 2001, when the internet was still new to most Canadians, Canada Job Centre opened its doors online with a simple mission — make it easier for Canadians to find work, and for employers to find the right people.

“Through recessions, a global pandemic, and the age of AI — Canada Job Centre has remained standing. While many job portals came and went, we continued.”

Today, we carry 24 years of Canadian employment knowledge into a new era — serving the next generation of workers, newcomers, and career changers with the same commitment we had on day one.
