@@chitchatwithshilpa Mam what skill I do if I want to work as a HR In Dubai ?
Please guide me 🇮🇳
To the point content. Flow of the video is totally from a viewers point of view, every second question that popped in my head was right away addressed and answered too. Great job!
You know u guys are fantastic, advice not to commercialized it like potato talkies. YOU GUYS rock..Happy growing. Sent you and Amit linkedIn request and want to some genuine advice one to one. Hope you will revert.
Good informative video.
Looks like you are born for you tube.
Keep it up.
Perseverance and passion
its quite encouraging me to keep my career as HR in ontario next year, i will keep my goal and trying step by step………bless u guys
Good luck 👍
So relatable! No calls for more than 2 months with a stronger profile. I also figured I had to downgrade my titles and experiences. So helpful to new people in Canada. I wish I had seen this video 3 years ago.. Haha..
Great job guys - love the respectful tone and how well paced you both are while interacting with audience and each other :)
This interview taken by Ma'am was very much well organized and it cleard so many doubts of mine...Thanks Shilpa and Amit..
It was such an honest and well structured interview. I am into HR as well. I have 8 years of experience with MNCs in India. Predominantly, my experience is into HR business partnering. I have limited experience with recruitment which was in the initial stages of my career. My PR process is almost in the last stage and it had got stuck due to COVID for last two years. Tentatively, I might be ready to fly in another 3-4 months. Just like Amit, am keen on having a long term career in HRBP and not very much open to do recruitment for a long while. However, I would be very much flexible to take it up as a launchpad while I procure CHRP certification and get more internalized into Canada as an individual and a professional.
I have three questions:
1. If Amit's CV was all about HR generalist profile essentially, how could he even get calls for a recruiter profile initially?
2. While he gave an interview for the third firm was CHRP enough to get that interview call as his canadian experience prior to that has been into talent acquisition completely?
3. Am from LGBT community. Is there any Diversity hiring in HR?
Would be thankful for pin pointed responses to the above in anticipation. More power to you both!!
Bro your concern is long I don’t think they will reply
Thank you so much guys!
That’s very helpful for finding job as an immigrant ❤️
Keep it up guys, really informative as well as supportive video. Keep sharing HR facts and updates in canada, we would love to watch more.. #like
Very motivate bcz I am also a recruiter and I am also planning to come but confuse . whether should I go for Digital marketing course or HR programs. Very very confuse. Bcz in india as a recruiter job is hell if u r not good with good companies and MNC.
This is great. Super content guys. Glad I found your channel! Can you share some insights about the steel industry in Canada?
I guess no one covers the job market for Steel Industry in spite of big companies like ArcelorMittal having a manufacturing unit in the country. If possible, please share some light. Thank you for your time!
Best Wishes,
Vicky Mathur
Thanks, guys this is very helpful. I am in an exactly similar situation as Amit currently, an HR from UAE to Canada & this video is a great help.
Loved the way how you guys are sharing your experiences and challenges... Also the way you are breaking down your advise is easier to understand...In future if possible can you please make a video on forums which you used for networking or were there any groups you followed etc etc.. Thanks for the wonderful video.
Sure..Thanks
Appreciate this interview...amit explained it so well , I m positive now
Hi Shilpa love your honesty and candor plus down to earth nature as I follow most of your videos ! Thanks for sharing your journey !
Need your husband’s advice as my daughter is a HR professional and needs her first break in the HR field in Canada … appreciate some pointers
Thank you Amit for Sharing your experience here. I would request you to please share your views for the UAE job market as well it will be great help for us. Superb Content Guys!!

@@chitchatwithshilpa Thank you Shilpa! God bless you both!
Hello,
Thank you so much for this video.
I wish I knew this information 4years ago. Like they say it’s never too late . I am a candidate who landed on health care industry for staffing , all these years felt like I am one of the odd persons in the group as I never knew the medical terminologies. I am glad with all the experiences I have received being a staffing coordinator. Felt so stressful at times due to the nature of the job but I learnt many good life lessons and felt really glad in doing job .As I am unemployed currently looking to apply only for recruiting jobs. It is been more than a week now still not a single response from any of the companies .
I am glad that I came across your video.
Many thanks 🙏
Great video again and love the way its conducted in the form of an interview. Ideal questions covered. Best was the wrap up with valid suggestions. Good luck and thanks for motivating always. Tc and stay safe 🥰
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations for the new channel
And all the best for your future 👍👍
You are finally here after Ravish's incessant advice! You have such a vibrant personality! So glad that you are finally sharing your side of the story. God bless all of you
Thank you so much....Appreciated...
Explained so well!! Now I need to work on my resume too! If you know about some aerospace engineers; do give some small brief on that too in some of your videos.
All the Best!
Loved your video, very informative and answered a lot of questions I had about how to proceed by managing expectations, upgrading my qualifications, tweaking my Resume.
A few ideas for your next videos, please share your experiences of your jobs i.e. what is it you look for in a truck driver? Your journey with CHPR certification. also, saw your cute daughter, please make video on how to find school, challenges/ adventures of bringing up children in Canada
Sure, noted..
Very informative and helpful👏👏..plz post more regarding different jobs also if possible..best wishes always👍👍
Sure, will keep posting interviews with different profile holders
Thankyou so much sir and ma'am... I also am an HR graduate... This has helped me ... ☺️
Thanks a lot Amit Ji and Shilpa ji for the interview. I am trying for HR job in Canada. The info is very useful. Hope I will meet you both in Canada ASAP. Thanks
Wow mam soon your channel will hit 1k subs.... Congrats in advance😀😀😀
Thank you..:)
Hi Shilpa..Thanks for sharing all the information.I am from HR background and looking for opportunities in Recruitment side..please throw some light how to go about it as u mentioned its lil easy to enter into the market but somehow it's not working for me.Would like to connect with you.Thanks
very nice informative video, it will help others. Thanks & lots of love from Dhaka.
Very good motivation for HR professional like me. Thank you for the information 👍
Really enjoyed the video.. Hope you put out more HR related videos and how HR in Canada is different than HR posts in Dubai. As an HR employee I am keen to understand the differences..
Hi Shilpa, I am also an HR professional and my career profile is also same as Amit’s but in Indian Market. I recently shifted to Canada and looking for HR jobs. I am also not getting any response from the recruiters. Being a recruiter yourself, Please can you help me in this regard. Thankyou so much
COVID could be a reason that you are not getting any success. May I know when you started your job search? Keep updating your resume on Indeed and try to apply for a wider geography rather than applying for the jobs only in your city.
Good informative video. Very pragmatic job search approach shared by Amit, Thanks both. I have 10+ years HR experience in India and am submitted in EE with low CRS.. hoping I get the lottery and use the tricks you shared!
bolna asan he bhai

Shilpa we really really appreciate your efforts.. Thank you ji for sharing
It's my pleasure
I feel I heard my career story. I would say it is my story.
Hi Rupal, that's the biggest compliment if someone can hear us and relate with our story. Thanks for watching.
Hello to both of you, 🙏It's really very nice interview the questions asked were very relevant and informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing,
Really appreciate it
I learned lots of things ######
@shilpa I am eventually going through your older videos and I think the other day I asked you a question where I think this video really helped already 👍🏻🥰...
Thank you for sharing your experience
Such a honest video of the real challenges and wins in life. Loved the video
Great experience, thanks for sharing!:)
Bomb information guys! Real talk buddies ...real talk.
I am a software engineer. I had a great job in banking domain in India. But after I came to Dubai, it took me almost 9months to get a job.. So, never loose hope. And just keep learning. I learnt everything required to suit most of the jobs in my field. I used to read the Job description and make my resume accordingly, so that i can fit in. And atleast my resume gets picked up. I got very limited calls, like 4-5calls in this whole time. I cracked many interviews, but sometimes i was over qualified, sometimes it was a junior role. I also did kind of unpaid job just for experience here. Finally got a good paying job after 9months.
Finally, I am working in one of the leading Govt company here from past 1.5year.. We are kinda happy here. But due to lot of uncertainty in jobs here, we are thinking of shifting to Canada or Australia. But again I am thinking alot as it will be very far from India.
Can u plz share interview experience of a software developer in big data or Java language.
Hi @amreen, my husband is also in retail banking in India and now we are thinking of shifting to Dubai, can you please share if he'll get banking job in Dubai, please let me know
Thanks a lot for sharing your HR success story
Aapko dekh kar mood fresh ho gaya ji .Try to post outer area.
Thanks for sharing from real-life experience. It's been full of positivity and some motivations too.
Very informational video…my daughter has completed masters in HR from university of windsor and pursuing CHRP too…will share with her..might be helpful
That's great
Apki personality bahut achi hai apko media industry mai jana chahiye
Mai b Dubai mein as a accountant job krti hu
Hey ! If anyone planning to come city like Calgary/Edmonton rather Toronto/Vancouver , does it change perspective for job search (special for banking industry) ?
Hi I am a recruiter in India...planning to move to Canada. Can I do CHRP designation from India
Hi Pooja, you need to be a member of HRPA first to complete CHRP or CHRL. One of the requirements is that you must be present in Canada as a citizen, permanent resident or on work permit.
I really appreciate both of you because you are helping alot of people by sharing your own experience. I really like that!
Miss Shilpa your teaching is like your cuteness!!
Thank u so much Sadam...😀
@@chitchatwithshilpa your most well come!!
Wonderful experience ! Enjoyed the vlog💕💕
Hey, Can you clear some of my doubts
1) How is the job of recruiter or HR professional in Canada ? Is it good paid and how are the growth and future prospects ?
2) Is it easy or hard to get a job of recruiter in Canada, considering having 3 years of experience as a recruiter in home country ( India )
Hi, I'm from India.. Your videos are quite informative..
Well, I am also from an HR background and planning to move to Dubai.. Would appreciate it if you could make some video on how to get a job easily.
Very nice video.. thanks for sharing your experience with us. May I know what do you mean by Unionized companies?
Hi Rishika, many companies here have unions that represent its employees to the management. Union representatives deal with the HR department and raise all employee concerns and negotiate with the HR on behalf of employees.
Hi Guys, I am highly motivated by watching this video and it is informative video.... Keep doing videos...which helps many to get understand about Canadian market and life in Canada... Thank you so much
Your look and voice is like gul panag 👌
Thanks for sharing, Amit & Shilpa.

Great Going...... 👌👍❤️
Hello Shilpa,
Thank you for posting such an informative video.
I am a new immigrant in Calgary & a recruiter just like you. As I don't have any experience in using ATS in my previous company so will it hinder my chances in landing a job here in Canada? Or shall I take up any course on it?
Though companies prefer recruiters who have worked on any ATS but its not the same everywhere..small companies do not use any ATS most of the times and there are many free versions of ATS available on net to practice.
@@chitchatwithshilpa thank you for the suggestion!
Very informative video for HR professional like me. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thankyou very much for this video. Very informative 💯😇
Thank you for this video finally. Is it possible to do CHRP certification from home country? What is the cost n duration of this certification? Is PHR certification considered equivalent to CHRP?
Hello mam, please post any suggestions or videos for diploma students in HR. I have done diploma of HR as an international in calgary. I have tried for a lot of entry level jobs but still fail. Would you provide any information regarding this too.
Great content! Thank you...
Being in HR, do you guys think changing job frequently after coming to Canada would not affect the profile? Will a recruiter think twice before approaching you? I am sure in India it's not good for your profile. What do you guys think?
Being a recruiter, I always encounter such profiles as in Canada, its common to work on fixed terms or short term Contracts, part time, seasonal or weekend jobs. Recruiters call you and ask you the reasons of changing companies. If you can justify, its OK. Here its very common to hire new people for short term and lot of people work only on such roles as these kind pays higher than regular full time. I hope you got the gist.
@@chitchatwithshilpa that answers my question, thank you. Appriciate your efforts in helping people.

Your actual job hunt efforts should start once you get COPR...Before that, just connect with people in the province you are planning to land...every province has different certification need...check job openings for that province and what actually they are asking...try to learn those softwares, ATS etc during this time...
