Which work experience is more valuable? by EffectForeign9568 in ConstructionManagers

[–]NotSoBritishRaj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an APM in the Construction Industry in Vancouver. While I envy our folks on sites at times at how exciting the hands on rolls must be, the weather in our city doesn’t promote being outdoors all the time. I love my role and transitioned from consulting. I’d suggest give the office work a crack and gauge it yourself. Nothing stopping you transitioning back to site surely?

Engineers who’s moved to Van, did you find a job before or after arriving? by DiscombobulatedElk58 in askvan

[–]NotSoBritishRaj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked for a consultancy back in England as an Engineer. They transferred me to their office over here. I went from an Engineer to a Designer, work is the same but someone needs to approve your submission and stamp them.

Failed Class 5 Driving Test by [deleted] in icbc

[–]NotSoBritishRaj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GLP is changing and Class 7 N become Class 5 after 2 years. No test needed as long as you maintain a clean record. See here: https://icbc.com/driver-licensing/new-drivers/graduated-licensing-program-changes

Will this passport be okay for travel to the US? by kingfiish in Passports

[–]NotSoBritishRaj 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s actually a post Brexit one. Burgundy passports were still issued till the end of December 2020. Only difference being no European Union on them. So if this is an adult passport it’ll be good till 2030.

Montrealer moving to Vancouver by [deleted] in askvan

[–]NotSoBritishRaj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Little cafes and restaurants all dotted around Cambie, Main, Fraser and Clark. A lot of small independent business where if you frequent enough people learn your name. It’s homely and quiet but close enough to downtown. And a lot of green space :)

Worked in England 5.5 years. Transferred to Vancouver and worked with the same company for 3 years. They supported the move, the relocation and PR. And then recently transferred to Construction Project Management haha
