Ex-Google employee struggles to find job in Canada: 'Indian experience being overlooked'
Struggles of an Ex-Google Employee in Canada
In the video, the professional, who had more than three years of experience working at Google in India, revealed that his current annual income in Canada is $17,500 (Rs 10,77,511). “I can hardly survive on this income,” he said, expressing dissatisfaction with the low wages he now earns in comparison to his previous role in India. The drastic drop in salary has left him frustrated, especially since his work experience from India is not being recognized by Canadian employers.
«Ever since I moved here, I've been reducing my experience on my resume because recruiters aren’t counting my work in India,» he explained. He added that the experience he gained while working for a major company like Google is being largely overlooked. «It just doesn’t make any sense,» he said, noting that employers in Canada seem to prioritize local experience over foreign credentials.
The professional, currently looking for a new job, also pointed out that he has noticed a preference for Canadian candidates in the hiring process. «Recruiters here are looking for Canadian candidates, not Indian ones,» he said, highlighting another obstacle faced by many immigrants seeking employment in Canada.
