Employment Ontario can help you get the training, skills and experience you need to achieve your goals. We connect people looking for work with employers looking for workers, and have locations across the province to help with job search and employment and training opportunities.
We help job seekers, workers and employers with advice, grants and other services around public and private sector employment.
Workers and job seekers can make a free appointment to speak with an employment counsellor to help you develop career goals, prepare for interviews or start a job.
