RECRUITMENT · FORKLIFT AND MATERIAL HANDLING

Hiring a forklift operator in Quebec and across Canada.

“I have driven a forklift” says nothing about which type, in what environment, or whether the training is current. Those three change everything, including for your insurance.

OUR ASSESSMENT

What we verify in a candidate for this trade

Each trade family has its own assessment module. For every skill claimed, a concrete and recent example is required, and the level of autonomy is stated.

01The types of equipment operated: electric, propane, counterbalance, pallet jack, stacker
02The forklift training completed, the provider and the date, and whether it is still valid
03The environment: warehouse, outdoors, narrow aisles, loading docks
04Order picking, receiving and shipping
05The systems used: scanner, paper picking sheet, warehouse management software
06Safety rules and the daily equipment inspection

The report you receive contains the strengths with their evidence, the gaps written plainly, the conclusion on work authorisation and a clear recommendation. See the full method

BEFORE HIRING

The test and the certifications

The technical test we recommend

A run in real conditions with your aisles and your loads. Speed is easy to check; safety is what you need to watch.

We also give you what to verify during your interview, so you know what to listen for.

Certifications and documentation

Forklift training must be valid and matched to the equipment used. We verify what the candidate declares and flag what must be redone before day one.

WHERE WE SEARCH

Local first, international if needed

We search across Canada before proposing the international route. We bill for both, so we have no interest in steering you toward one over the other.

In Canada

  • Our internal database, LinkedIn organic and paid, Meta, Indeed, Job Bank and our referral network
  • A region’s pool is limited, but Canadian mobility is not
  • Genuine willingness to relocate is qualified early, with the timeline and the constraints
  • No government process, no processing time

See local recruitment →

Internationally

  • The applicable route depends on the candidate’s nationality, the job category, the work location and the wage
  • Some routes impose no job level and carry no government fees on your side
  • An excellent candidate for whom no route is open is not a candidate
  • Eligibility analysis is part of screening, not of the step after

YOU WORK IN THIS TRADE

You are looking for a job, not an employee

What it costs you

Nothing, if you are already in Canada with a valid work authorisation. The employer pays our fees.

We explain the job, the wage, the shift and the location, and we ask for your agreement before any presentation.

What we do not promise

Neither a job, nor a timeline, nor a permit. We work on the real mandates our clients give us.

If your trade matches a current mandate, it can move fast. If not, your profile stays in our database. See the Workers page →

WHERE TO START

Both lead to the same place: someone who knows your file.
