How to apply

Yes, the same requirements that make it legal to work in Canada. If you aren’t a Canadian Permanent Resident or a Canadian Citizen, you’ll have to obtain a Work Permit to work in Canada. You’ll also need to meet legislative age requirements and meet the requirements of a pre-employment screening, which includes background reference checking and criminal reference checking.

From fake emails to requests for donations, scammers are taking advantage of uncertainty and worry to steal money and information. 

In a job scam, fraudsters will often use the name of companies that exist in Canada but list their own contact information instead. They might also ask you to fill out forms that request personal and financial information or ask for a copy of your passport or a personal cheque. 

Scotiabank takes the protection of your personal information seriously and is aware that employer brands may be used in fraudulent job posting activity on partner job boards. Scotiabank will never ask you to accept money into your personal bank account nor will we send you money and request a part of it back. We also do not communicate with candidates outside of our internal telephone, e-mail, and video-conferencing systems. 

Here's how you can protect yourself: 

• Take the time to research an employer and confirm they’re hiring
  
• Be wary when a "company" uses a web-based email address (like Gmail) instead of one from their personalized domain
• Watch out for an urgent tone claiming they need you to start immediately
• Don't give your personal or financial information to anyone, especially if they've contacted you by email or social media
• Don’t cash cheques on behalf of companies asking you to return funds to them
