Finding work in Saskatchewan
Moving to Saskatchewan is about building a life for you and your family. There is a range of employment opportunities across Saskatchewan, depending on your partner and family members' experiences and interests.
Helpful places to begin searching include online job boards such as SaskJobs and Indeed, and job matching platforms like SaskJobs Career Services.
Jobs available within the Saskatchewan public service are listed on the Government of Saskatchewan website.
Preparing for your job search
A strong résumé or CV and understanding the local job market can make a significant difference in a successful job search. Tools such as the Government of Canada Job Bank offer guidance on résumé writing, job search strategies and career planning.
For those who may need it, support is also available for credential assessment and language training to help prepare for employment in Saskatchewan.
Credential recognition and career preparation
If you completed your education or training outside of Canada, you may need to have your credentials assessed before working in your field. This process helps ensure your qualifications are recognized and aligned with Canadian standards.
Resources to guide you through credential assessment and licensure are available through the Government of Canada. Healthcare professionals can visit our licensure page for information tailored to practicing in Saskatchewan.
Networking
In Saskatchewan, not all job opportunities are advertised. Many people find work through networking connections, conversations and referrals.
Networking can include talking with friends, colleagues or community members, as well as attending local events and job fairs. The Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce is a helpful community service resource that can provide your partner and family members with opportunities to build their professional network.
What this means for you
Moving to Saskatchewan is an opportunity for your entire family to build a future here. With access to job opportunities, support services and community connections, partners and family members can find their place and grow their careers alongside you.
