Samie Community: Beyond Services
Our social impact
Because succeeding in immigration also means finding your place in the job market and learning from the experience of others who have taken the same path.
Through this community hub, Maison Samie actively engages with Francophone newcomers to the Ottawa-Gatineau region. We transform your international talent into a local career.
Looking for a job in Canada?
One step at a time...
We help you navigate the Canadian job market with:
Job search strategies
Learn to target employers based on your skills and background and access the hidden job market
Practical workshops (CVs and Interviews)
No more abstract theory. Our workshops are creative laboratories.
Networking and Mentoring
Because isolation is the number one enemy of employment, and also because a contact can change everything!
Real Impact: The “Job Marathon” (June 2025)
A pilot initiative led by our founder, Samie, to boost job searching.
Mobilization : More than 150 registrations received at launch
Selection : An exclusive cohort of 10 participants (6 women and 4 men)
Results : Interviews secured for the majority of active participants
Multiplier Effect : One participant coached her partner using our methods, enabling him to find a job in turn.
