  6. Should I apply for this job?

    Alka_Selse BSc replied to cris23's topic in Canada

    I just moved back to Greater Vancouver from Victoria. I really miss it. It's very much a city of extremes. There are a lot of young adults, and a lot of seniors. I haven't lived in the core of...

  8. Should I apply for this job?

    Alka_Selse BSc replied to cris23's topic in Canada

    True, that is a good point. I didn't realize there was an HR protocol stating that the jobs must be posted even if they weren't intending to fill them from external sources, or not at all. Do you have...

  9. Should I apply for this job?

    Alka_Selse BSc replied to cris23's topic in Canada

    @Diffindo - I'm from Vancouver as well, and it's so strange. I keep seeing all over the forums how hard it is to find a job, but I did a Fraser Health job search a couple weeks ago and there must have...

  13. UFV 2012 Fall Intake - Insights and Meetings

    Alka_Selse BSc replied to Alka_Selse BSc's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Hmm...after a further inspection, it seems I can only successfully search the group if I'm on an account friended to someone in the group. Weird... I'll try to fix it. I can't figure out how to change...

    Alka_Selse BSc replied to Alka_Selse BSc's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    It's just myself and my brother in here at the moment - I had to choose someone to add to the group to be able to create it. But he's in his second year of the program, anyway - not giving me much to...
