Muppet Monologue

2023-04-23

Man, what a busy and productive week this has been, Hardly had time to sit down and share my thoughts with you.

In my quest to get a job in Canada, I decided to enroll for a short 3 month program online, which should get me a very smart certificate once completed. The first course of six was completed where I was pleasantly surprised with the content of the course, it's delivery, and how much fun it was to take part in. Very keen for the remaining 5 courses and also very keen to land a job soon. It has been a year since my last paycheck, and have since applied for over 200-300 jobs that resulted in 2 callbacks only. Absolutely terrible stats for a person from Africa with a PhD in Chemistry and 5 years work experience. Can't help but think that my mental health has taken a knock from this whole situation?

Side Note: I have some very strong opinions about the struggles of skilled Immigrants in Canada and would refrain from sharing them here. However, what I will do is post a link to some Scientific Evidence and leave you to draw your own conclusions.

Why Do Skilled Immigrants Struggle in the Labor Market?

Anyway, onto the next challenge!
