__Employment__
Thre are many new words that are specific to finding a job. Successfully finding a job that you like, and pays well requires knowledge of the tools available as well as knowledge about your skills.

In Canada, people find jobs through friends, seeing signs posted at a business or, most often, people will look online for a job. There are several job search engines (websites) that can help you find a job but each one is slightly different so you need to take time to look at them.

Here are some job search engines:
 * [|Indeed] collects many jobs from the other websites. It is a great place to start looking for a job. You can use the "advanced search" in the top right corner to specify how close the job needs to be to Edmonton and search for other jobs with similar work.
 * The Government of Canada sponsors a website called [|Job Bank.ca] What words you use to search with will determine your success. For example, you need to type in the job title and 'in Edmonton Alberta' to limit your search to our city.
 * Another one is [|Wow Jobs] Be sure to select "Exact city" in the Within box to limit jobs to Edmonton only.
 * As well, there is [|Monster Jobs] You must refine your search by clicking on various things like "location" "category". Note if you want to go back to the search results __scroll to the bottom__ of the page to and click on "back to results."

Several of these websites offer an email notification so that once you've picked a category and location of job, they will automatically send you an email of new jobs that come up.
