RECRUITMENT · GENERAL LABOURER

Hiring a general labourer in Quebec and across Canada.

It is the easiest role to advertise and the hardest to keep filled. The problem is almost never skill: it is attendance, transport, and the gap between the job advertised and the job itself.

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.

01What the person has actually done: assembly, packing, material handling, production support
02Physical capacity against your role: loads, standing, pace, temperature
03The shift accepted and the transport available, verified before the interview
04Attendance: previous jobs, how long they lasted and the real reason for leaving
05Versatility and willingness to learn a more technical role over time
06Understanding of safety instructions in the working language

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 trial day speaks louder than any interview. We prepare the candidate for what you will be watching, so the day is representative.

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

Certifications and documentation

No certification required in most cases. It is also the role for which the most usable international route is the one that imposes no job level and costs you no government fees.

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 →
