Many immigrants in Canada fall into the Survival Job Trap—working jobs that pay the bills but don’t move them closer to permanent residency.

But the real problem isn’t immigration.

It’s strategy.

In this episode, career coach Mher Mardoyan explains the biggest mistake newcomers make in their job search—and how to escape it.

You’ll learn:

• The survival job trap and why many immigrants get stuck there
• Why applying to jobs should often be your last strategy
• How networking actually works in Canada
• How LinkedIn can help newcomers build real professional relationships
• The CAN networking framework: Connection, Action, Nurture
• Why checking the NOC code before accepting a job matters for immigration
• How to transition from survival jobs to career-aligned opportunities

One of the most powerful reminders from this episode:

Your survival job is a bridge — not the plan.

The key is staying intentional about your strategy while building relationships that can open the right doors.
