Can anyone help me to find a job/paid internship in social work in Toronto?
Hi, I am a future graduate student from Switzerland in social work. I am looking for a job or a paid internship in Toronto from September 2009 to August 2010. I had a lot of work experience with children, teenagers and disabled persons. I speak French, English and Arabic. Does anybody know some institutions that can offer a position in Toronto?

You and countless thousands of others are future graduates looking for internship work, too. Canada is not some haven where jobs are plentiful, well paying and easy for anyone anywhere to get. Our economy is doing very badly with hundreds of thousands of Canadians losing their jobs what few jobs there are left - yes, even within the field of social work - will not go to foreigners. Sorry but that's the way it is. Your university might be a better source for you.

try job search engines like jobbank.gc.ca workopolis.ca mazemaster.ca

I would recommend looking into community organizations such as shelters, or agencies that specialize with children - such as the Children's Aid Society - they tend to take on recent graduates. The fact that you are trilingual is of benefit to you. Try some of these sites for names of agencies that you could contact. http://www.metrac.org/programs/info/tororg.htm http://www.toronto.ca/abc/affiliates.htm http://ourfaves.com/c/toronto/active-life/community-organizations-volunteering One more thing - don't get discouraged by negative comments - yes there is a recession, however there are jobs to be had and companies are still hiring. Social work is an occupation that is of demand, especially in these times, so don't dismay. Good luck with your job search!

Swiss Saver Pass number doesnt work for GA Switzerland option in trenitalia site ?
Me and my wife will be visiting Italy and then travelling to Switzerland by train . We have bought a swiss saver pass from rail europe . I'm trying to purchase tickets from Milan to Visp from trenitalia website , there is a fare type "GA Switzerland" which I understand is for swiss pass holders.But our swiss pass is 8 digits and the site requires a card number with 7 digits . Are we not supposed to select this fare type? What should I do ? I would really appreciate if any body could let me know how should I go about booking the ticket . Thanks

The GA isn't the same as the Swiss Pass, it covers the same routes but is for Swiss residents, and goes for at least a month, usually a year. Don't know what you should do, though, sorry. You could try emailing the Swiss railroad company. (Or Trenitalia)

You can find it job easily but it depends upon your skill & capabilities. Any way u can find help on site jobfreesearch.com

The worldwide downturn had a great influence onto the Swiss economy, too. Depending on your skills and nationality, you may find a job anyway. Consider that Swiss and EU citizens have to be considered first (this is the law, not my opinion). Your question would find a much better return if you'd be posting it in the EnglishForum, a place where English speaking ex-pats meet. Its URL is: http://www.englishforum.ch/forum.php Good luck in your job hunting, anyway!

Since it is very difficult to get a work permit in Switzerland, I would suggest to contact you school in Canada and have them do the research for you. There are 2/3 culinary schools in Swizterland, you may get a job thru them. Also, major hotels may hire you, so if you work at an international hotel chain, transfer can be easy.(i.e. InterContinental Hotels, Hiltons, etc. etc.)
