Candidate Testimonials

“With three young kids, the decision to emigrate from Ireland for a second time was not an easy one. Ruairi encouraged me to apply for permanent residency early in the planning process, which was really helpful. His knowledge of locations across Western Canada was superb and, most importantly, he managed to find me a senior project management role where I can grow my career in Alberta.”

“After four years in Vancouver, I decided I needed a career change. I contacted Outpost Recruitment about making a switch from engineering consultancy into construction. Ruairi identified that I could use my professional engineering designation, project management skills and previous structural experience with buildings to grow into a Project Manager for a general contractor. His attention to detail and communication throughout the process was first class. I would highly recommend Outpost Recruitment.”

“Ruairi’s ability to understand my interests and career goals proved decisive in helping me move my career forward in Canada.

“I met with Ruairi for a coffee when I arrived in Vancouver. His well-rounded knowledge of the hiring process in Canada and his eagerness to develop a suitable approach to sell my skills and experience to potential employers were key in aiding me to find employment as an Australian Expatriate. Ruairi put me in contact with a number of key personnel within various engineering firms and helped me to develop a plan to utilise my job searching time in the most efficient and effective way for the Canadian market. With time on my side and no ties to Vancouver, I opted for a role in Edmonton where I could accelerate my career. His strong communication skills and willingness to help me succeed in a new environment were pivotal in my job search success.”

“Finding challenging work in my field became difficult once the recession hit Ireland. After I decided on moving to Canada, I contacted Outpost Recruitment to kick-start my job hunt. Ruairi assisted me in transforming my resume and introduced me to three employers that were a fit for my experience. I trusted him to manage to my international job search, and he exceeded all expectations.”

Soon after, I met with Ruairi at an employment fair and within a month I had a great job offer in Canada. Having a job in place before I moved was invaluable, and their guidance and communication was superb.”

“Outpost Recruitment proved a fantastic resource in helping me adapt my job hunting skills to the Canadian market. I got in touch the day I arrived in Vancouver. Ruairi connected me with my current employer and I received an excellent job offer within four weeks of arriving in Canada.

He provided some valuable career guidance and has continued to provide support as I pursue permanent residency in Canada.”
