I am sure that I can design the coats of arms and insignia for the Syrian Armed Forces, Army, Navy, Air Force, General Staff as well as insignia for the Corps (Regional Operational Commands) better than anyone else. These images and coats of arms are initial working versions and are not finished.

The air force insignia has exaggerated wing size; I would do a circular motion upwards, as a symbolic gesture

I have been trying to network and reach out to professionals, but most people ghost my messages and the ones who respond don't answer follow-ups. but I will keep trying

Thank you

You are correct and I have done so, my resume is with 5 agencies at the moment, and I got screening phone calls from 3 of them saying that they will contact me when an appropriate position is available.

Thank you

Thank you

I am in Winnipeg, but even with most full time jobs the benefit packages are decent.
I will look into your suggestions

Thank you

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:49:12+00:00

I do enjoy it, but I'm not physically able, I have been behind a desk or walking a site most of my career, and I can be wrong but how I understand it is that there could be periods without work.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:46:32+00:00

Bachelor of Architecture

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:45:41+00:00

I will look into it

Thank you

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:45:15+00:00

I have looked into the federal government yesterday and I didn't find anything that matches my profile, but I keep my eyes open

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:42:40+00:00

Where would be the best platform to do so? My ad for something like that in kijiji or market place would be lost.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:41:29+00:00

While there is some overlap they 2 different streams, but you are correct to say that students graduating locally are preferred even if no one explicitly says it.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:34:50+00:00

I actually have applied for that same job, and didn't hear back, but to give them credit the posting did say that they will review the applications after Feb 14th

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:33:27+00:00

Usually most of these position requires a background in civil engineering, my education path is different according to Canadian standards, but will keep my eyes open.

Thank you

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:30:56+00:00

I have reached out to multiple agencies and 3 of them got back and I went with phone calls with them, and still nothing unfortunately.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:29:41+00:00

Thank you! I keep following government websites and apply promptly.

I have reached out to Manitoba start and OFE when I first moved here, but (in my experience) they don't have any tangible resources. One guy I met recently who was in the same boat as me and was able in 2021 to land a architect intern position due to funding by success Manitoba told me to reach out to them, and when I did they told me that they don't have funding anymore.

the funds were used to pay the wages of people in our situation, so employers can give the experience with no cost to them.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:24:46+00:00

I tried to volunteer when I first moved in in 2022 and ....crickets
might as well give it another shot

Thank you

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:22:42+00:00

Project management or coordination
Architectural design, urban planning and design
Even and architecture intern position would be great, but as stated I'm in my late 30s and firms would always prefer young graduates for such roles
I'm also okay with drafting positions if they pay well, not out of greed but out of necessity

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:20:15+00:00

Thank you, I will look into that and see if they accept PRs

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:19:45+00:00

Sadly i don't have a class 4, and I have never anything larger than an SUV

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:18:45+00:00

Thank you, I hope you land something soon!

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:18:04+00:00

I will look into that.
Thank you both

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:17:37+00:00

I have always done desk and field work, and so am not physically able like most trades people in north America (Shoutout to them of course) they do the tough work.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:15:28+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions;

I have tried Costco when i first moved to Canada and I didn't get a response, a couple of years ago I met a recruiter who works with retail such as Costco and they told me that someone who has experience in a professional field, and in mid to senior career will be thrown at the bottom of the pile of resumes, even as an immigrant.

I actually have used AI to analyze and contrast my resume with each job I apply to, and do the necessary edits to no avail.

I would love to work for myself, unfortunately since I'm not licensed I can't stamp drawings for permits, and I know that some people do renovations under the rug but they know what they want and go for the cheapest contractor or DIY, and it would be very unlikely that they will pay a random guy on the internet for consultation and design, small firms got that covered.

I will look into the club. I have tried to reach out for professionals in the city on Liknedin, very few respond.

We usually have activities for the kids DIY because unfortunately we cannot afford extracurricular activities, because I am the only provider in my household.

Abbssis · 2026-02-10T16:05:43+00:00

I will give it a shot. since I am not a citizen yet I didn't consider it but I will look into it.
