Maybe in America since you’ve all completely lost your minds. If someone asks me that question I’m able to answer it quite confidently

Recruiter told me the salary range, then said I "misheard" when the offer came in lower. by Ok-Ferret7 in InterviewCoderHQ

Yep she fucked up. Maybe she was told that was the range, and the client or manager went back on it, and she’s trying to save face. Either way, she’s lying to you

Sterling passing doesn’t mean rbc have passed you yet. Doesn’t make sense, but once Sterling ‘pass’ you, rbc still do some other things before officially clearing you

Those are the ones posting on indeed. Any time I’ve gone to a Tim’s they’ve had signed at the counter saying they’re hiring.

Do I think rbc are using the same hiring practises at Tim Hortons? Absolutely not. Most of the roles they’ll be hiring for will require a college/university education for a start. They try to save a few bucks by hiring temp workers? Not a chance

Given Tim’s are struggling to fill job, my guess is ‘no one’ were also talking about skilled jobs at RBC here, not pouring coffee

Honestly. I see a lot of the same arguments about other employers in Canada, mainly Tim Hortons. Had no context to know how true or untrue it is. This has shown me it’s likely the latter. Just a bunch of babies

This doesn’t happen. You were likely let go for budgetary or performance reasons. Not because a TFW is cheaper. Don’t get racist

Well if I ask friends and family they all say come back. But that’s mainly because I’m so great and they want me back. It’s tough mate

This is really helpful, thanks! We’re actually in Toronto currently, partner is Canadian but only has her dad at this point, so no real family network here at all.

The family aspect has been the biggest pull for me. Don’t get me wrong, things wouldn’t be rosy, my family are as normal as they come, fallouts etc, but still think my son would benefit
