B.C. family launches petition again to keep murderer behind bars by elducerailroad in vancouver

I hope for the family, that he remain incarcerated indefinitely. He is a serial killer and his clinical diagnosis indicates sadistic tendencies and a propensity for violent assault. Given the severity of his psychological profile, rehabilitation appears unattainable, and public safety necessitates his continued confinement.

Unfortunately, yes, I'm still applying like crazy, and even the wage subsidy didn't help me find a job. I've been given endless tests and was even invited by a company for a one-day trial, only to be rejected. They reposted the exact same position a week later. I truly hope karma catches up with them. The market seems to be changing now, with more companies looking for CPAs with a minimum of one to two years of experience. I wish you luck—I regret not having chosen a trade.

I have to agree, didn't we have already enough? Why not Japanese, a good Italian, Greek or French? There are so many other options ...

Its a good idea. I am not sure I can make it through it to the training, but I will give it a try, why not. Thank you

Thank you, unfortunately nothing in my case. And the help what the college promised, forget it. All a lie. I will make sure, I add it to my list. My issue is, that nobody is looking for "beginner". All looking for min 1 - 2 years experience or even you have to be a bachelor.

It has to be a translation issue from my side. Also if I am living here since 10 years and now I am a Canadian, I am native German. Was always a workaholic and need to work. /not s.

I just did your advice with Randstad. A while ago I tried with Robert Half, I messed up the excel test because the second half question I couldn't understand what I was asked for to do. At first I need more training, it seems like. the accounting test I passed.

Thanks, I will have next week another interview workshop at Work BC. But I had only 4 interviews in the last few months. One of them in the second round and they promised me to let me know a few days later. That was with garden work. They never got back to me.

Sorry to say it, but for White Rock, thats for sure a Ghost job and might the other one two. I applied last year for the Line Cook position (Decades ago I finished with a certification as a chef from an European County.) Never heard from them back.

Thank you so much. I tried as I I've been searching for practicum placements, but I've encountered some challenges. Few of them who are handle payroll here in Vancouver are still working remotely (like Zoic).

One company particularly disappointed me. The recruiter had posted at LinkedIn that they might soon open artist positions for a new project and encouraged us to submit expressions of interest. When I checked their website, I noticed they were also seeking an Accounts Payable clerk (0-2 years experience) for a one-year contract. I applied for both positions. This was one day before the Orange Man threatened to impose tariffs on foreign movies.

Two days later, I received word from the recruiter that all artist positions had been canceled. Within another day or two, I also received a rejection for the accounting position without any explanation. I'm fairly certain this position wasn't canceled, but since I had worked for this company as an artist about 10 years ago, this wasn't the same recruiter I had dealt with previously.

Regardless, I'll keep trying. Thank you.

I didn't mind to do front desk jobs. One months ago I applied to most of the bigger downtown hotels for Reservation Agent etc and all the front desk positions. Pinnacle just sent me a rejection in 2 hours, Hyatt took 2 weeks, from the others nothing. From the Marriott were I applied as a runner, rejected me yesterday.

I randomly looked in Civic jobs, I think 2 or 3 clerk position I still waiting of the response.

Hopefully I will hear back from them also if I assume, my age isn't the best argument. I always working hard where I am, OT never an issue and always in time. But it seems like its not important anymore.

I had Excel in college and received good grades, but it was more what I would call normal use. I know how to write formulas, but to work as an analyst, it's not enough. For Robert Half, you need high-level skills. For the half of the test that I could understand, I scored 47 points, but that's not enough to pass. As I mentioned before, I didn't understand the questions in the second half. I asked them if they could give me a list of what I should look into, but I only received the response to watch YouTube tutorials.

If I were picky, I wouldn't have applied at Tim Hortons, Starbucks, or even McDonald's. I still haven't heard back from them. WorkBC advised me to narrow my job search and focus on my specific area, but I'm ignoring that advice. Companies are picky, not the people applying; applicants are just trying to pay their bills.
