We connect skilled newcomers of African descent with meaningful career opportunities in Canada
About us
300,000 newcomers arrive in Canada each year; unemployment and underemployment are among the largest challenges faced by those transitioning to Canada. According to Statistics Canada, African-born immigrants have the lowest employment rate and the highest unemployment rate of all immigrant groups. These rate differentials are most drastic when comparing them to Canadian-born citizens. The lack of recognition of previous work experience and education by employers limits newcomers' ability to secure adequate jobs. Most newcomers move here for the promise of a better life but face immense challenges securing jobs matching their skill level, leaving them feeling undervalued. At makingtheMove, our mission is to help skilled newcomers of African descent secure jobs that value their unique combination of education, skills, and work experience so that they have meaningful work. We support newcomers by building an awareness of the job marketplace, allowing them to create meaningful connections with industry leaders and providing resources that accelerate their career transition to Canada.
