Частина друга - Resources to help you find tech careers in Alberta (part 2/2) 8. Connect with recruiters. Employee fees are illegal in Alberta, so it won't cost you anything! Make the best resume you can and connect with every recruiter you can find - make sure you are in their database. Local recruiters and companies have no idea about you - make it easy for them and let them know that you are available! A couple of big ones I know that you can try (there are more): vanhack.com/ www.sisystems.com/ Here are some recruiters that attended Edmonton Tech Wednesdays: www.linkedin.com/in/grahamplomp/ www.linkedin.com/in/beckywebber13/ www.linkedin.com/in/emilie-roussis-1a6520150/ Large companies have their own recruiters.
