Chemical Engineer: Coming To Canada

Sustainable Employment Dept: "It was very, very hard. I thought I would be able to find work because of my education, but I had no luck," explains Chukwunonso. "I attended workshops, signed up with employment agencies and handed out hundreds of resumes. No one wanted to hire me.", according to Calgary Herald. Pounding the pavement became exhausting, and Chukwunonso eventually connected with the Calgary Catholic Immigration Society CCIS -- an organization which provides settlement and integration services to immigrants and refugees in southern Alberta and for Kingsley Chukwunonso, coming to Canada was supposed to mean a better life. But when the chemical engineer and his family moved from Nigeria six months ago, the adjustment was challenging. Chukwunonso isn't alone. Each year, between fourteen and fifteen thousand immigrants come to Calgary, searching for opportunity. The reality is many of them have a difficult time finding sustainable employment. As reported in the news.
