Lime Connect Canada's Corporate Recruitment Events for Students with Disabilities Seeking Summer, Co-op and Internship Opportunities - Wednesday, February 8th in Toronto
BMO Financial Group, Google, IBM Canada, PepsiCo, RBC and TD Bank Financial Group seek to connect with students with disabilities for a wide variety of summer, co-op and internship positions. Openings include both undergraduate and graduate opportunities.
Our partners have worked with Lime Canada to integrate disability as a full component of their overall diversity strategy, and value the intellectual capital that is found in people with disabilities. You won't want to miss this opportunity to network and develop relationships with corporate execs and recruiters who are seeking to hire, and to potentially meet one-on-one for more in-depth discussion regarding specific roles and your qualifications. We put talent first, and this is no "job fair."
By the way, we know that one in five people globally has a disability, and that 90% of disabilities on campus are invisible - including ADD, dyslexia, depression, medical conditions and many others - and all individuals with disabilities are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity.

To apply:

2. View specific job descriptions; and
3. Follow the link to our online application system where you will indicate the positions of most interest to you.
Please note that being a member of The Lime Network/establishing a profile is NOT the same thing as applying for an event. You must complete the application via the link provided on The Lime Network opportunities page. Candidates outside the Toronto metro market are encouraged to apply - positions exist across the provinces, and if your background closely matches a position, you may be interviewed locally.
Know, too, that we host recruitment receptions with our partners in Vancouver, and will host other cities as Lime Connect Canada grows in the future.
Please note that space is limited because of the event format, so candidates must apply/RSVP in advance for each reception. If your background matches our partners' current needs, we will send you an official invitation and details of the event in advance.
Register for The Lime Network to hear of scholarships and other opportunities that may be a match for your background. In addition to our recruiting receptions, members of The Lime Network also have the opportunity to view available positions with our partners and apply directly as Lime Connect Canada candidates - ensuring strong review and consideration. And, our partners review candidate profiles and resumes when they're seeking to fill specific roles.
