Data analysis is different in each organization.

My role is a combination of everything. Sourcing data, building ETL pipelines , data cleaning, wrangling, some analysis, data modeling and presentations. Many tools out there but SQL is still king.
A full fledged data engineering role it appears; I appreciate your heads up ma’am; I’ll like to ask if all the final interviews you did were in person or virtual?

only few directors and senior management staff/ partners earn that amount in private sector and public sector. The average director in public service for Ontario is on 130k to 150k. Stop being obsessed about that kind of salary because you will pay huge amount of taxes instead find how you can create a business that can generate that kind of income and hire a good tax accountant. Shalom
grin grin Thank you Maria; you wouldn’t blame me for being obsessed nah; Money must be made. I don’t mind you sharing ideas on businesses one can delve into here in Canada.

Hi everyone, I have a question; I guess our bosses @salford, @megastu, @ednut, among others will be able to draw from their experiences and share helpful insights.
So I was on a call with a friend who works as a Senior Business Analyst for a Big Pharma, and we were discussing about how attainable a salary threshold of 200kcad per annum is. I even whimsically chipped in the case of a family friend who works as a Director of Strategy for PWC and how I’m certain she earns way more than that. I was shocked when my statement was returned with a hysterical laughter and how that threshold is almost a pipe dream in Canada. Bottom line is he claimed people who earn that in Canada can be literally counted with your fingers and how he has never met anyone who earns that high in his 10-year career.

I’d like to ask if what he said is true; how attainable is the 200k salary threshold? All comments are welcome.

I own a 2009 Honda CRV, covered less than 5000km the past 1year as a newcomer. I paid $300/month. Upon renewal last month, my new monthly payment is $245/month

You mean you got a quote of 300/month with your international license?
Do you mind sharing what part of Canada you live?
I reside in Hamilton and I want to use my international license for a while pending the completion of renewal for my Nigeria license (to skip G2).

Hello
@Megastu
@Ednut
And any other helpful contributors.
I’ve been able to get an apartment in Hamilton and will be moving to Canada next month. However, since I’ll like to make landing as soft as possible. I’ll like to ask if there’s a way I can start the furnishing of my apartment from outside Canada, such that I can arrive Canada to a finished or almost finished apartment.

For instance the drive test center i went to had an Indian attendant, she refused to add my driving experience because my driving licence no carry middle name as on my passport.

Went there the next to try again or complain. I didn’t even need to explain to the white lady she just added my experience no questions asked.
Thank you

Hello guys.

Please I’ve got a question on POF.

I currently have a USD account on Payoneer (a platform that allows freelancers to have foreign bank accounts) where I deposit some money from my side hustle as a Freelancer which I intend to present as my POF. The entire required POF is 13,757 CAD which is roughly 10,000 USD.

I currently have 7,000 USD in the account and I recently got my ITA. Before I accept the ITA, can I make make a deposit by withdrawal of 3,000 USD on the account from my Fiverr or Upwork account to make the balance 10,000 USD without it raising any issues post-ITA since the 3,000 will be traceable to my freelance work and can be clearly classified as my income?
Your payoneer wallet isn’t a bank account; you’d have to transfer the funds to your dormicilliary account or a traditional bank account. It’s a payment platform not a bank. In addition, you’d have to submit reference letter in addition to your bank statement; that’d be difficult to execute with Payoneer.

he already has explained why people prefer north york and Scarborough. It’s easily accessible to downtown Toronto and environs via line 1 and line 2 subway. Also consider where you are likely to get jobs ( check indeed) , you can check the cost of rents for the different areas online. Affordability and GTA in these current time too don’t exist. 😅

For driving you can use the 9ja license to 2 or 3 months only
Thank you Ednut

Most newcomers like Scaborough or York due to its transport assessibility. For families you can do Mississauga, Brampton or Hamilton. They are between 35-55mins from Toronto and ideal for families.
Also, I take it the aforementioned cities ideal for families are so because they’re more affordable?

Hello everyone. I recently got the “request for visa” mail from IRCC and have sent my passport across. I currently stay in the UK and plan to travel to Canada with my wife by July. I’ll be moving to Ontario, as I got in through PNP.
However, Ontario is really big, and it has been very difficult figuring out the precise city to stay. I don’t know if anyone can provide robust insights as to the following:
a) The best city with the right balance of affordability-employment-Nigerian community.
b) Can I drive with my Nigeria license pending the time I take the Canadian driving test?
c) Regarding cars, I’ve been checking auto trader and Facebook marketplace, and I was surprised at how expensive cars are, even with very high mileage. What’s the advisable upper limit for mileage when purchasing cars (e.g. Mercedes Benz GLA or Jaguar F-pace)? Also, what are the red flags to look out for?
d) While I know this is relative, please indulge me, where’s the best city to stay of the GTAs?
All inputs are welcome.
