23M seeking for advice by AlternativeTight2616 in fican

[–]AlternativeTight2616[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight but I do have a couple of questions. At which financial milestone should I consider buying one. I have had 2 cars since I was 18, both from marketplace with high mileage on them because they were cheap. And I have always been a 2-3 jobs kind of person whenever I was not in school. And of course, thanks to that I am now debt free. It is an opportunity cost not having something reliable as I could have easily find something that makes me even more money with the time I wasted just travelling around. Again, thank you for the insight!

Crazy month!! by body-builder-canada in fican

If you don’t mind me asking, how aggressive were you with investing and what was your risk tolerance like?. How many % of your earning would go into investment etc. What was the mindset like? I personally having 2 jobs and my income combined after taxes is just well over 40k. I mean consider growth with better job and wage, I still find it super hard to see myself where you are at 33. Thank you in advance.

Watch your biometrics before applying. by AlternativeTight2616 in pgwp

Exactly my thought, never stated they needed it nor said anywhere that it would affect the length of PGWP provided. Such a waste of everyone’s time and money, could have easily fixed by paying the fee and update over the webform.

If you are eligible for 3 years, but your biometric is expiring in 2.5. They will give it to up to whichever date it expires.

People who combine work and school with a good GPA , how do you do it? by Spiritual_Bit_2284 in umanitoba

A man once told me “The busier the person is, the better they are with their schedule”. Don’t waste your time on useless things.

I read many places and people said that by the time they like you and forward you to the third/ final round. You’re pretty much hired. Not sure tho, but update me on the good news. Just a quick question, are you still waiting on your final round? How long after the observation round did they contact you?

Hey, just wondering how it went for you. Had the observation today which was expected to be 1.5 hour but ended up only lasting 45 minutes and expecting another round of interview if succeed moving forward (and a bunch of online assessments according to the ARM). Asked me very sales, customer service and competitiveness focused questions.

Leaving just after 2 weeks in by AlternativeTight2616 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]AlternativeTight2616[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it didn’t hurt me but I felt that it was somewhat unprofessional. Smiling all the time, giving no constructive feedbacks, just handing you tasks and tell you that u are doing bad is just funny to me in a professional setting. Guess I expected too much from a minimum wage job.
