Career Change Ontario

Kelly Said:

What would be the best University in Ontario for me?

We Answered:

Is this just for an undergrad? Can't say I know much about genetics programs, but there are a lot of schools in Ontario where you'll get a good undergrad. If it's for a Master's or higher, I'd say look into it more, sorry I can't help you out on the specifics.

New Career in Real Estate in Ontario Canada, yes or no?

We Answered:

It can be financially rewarding, but there will be times when you don't have money coming in so you have to be a good budgeter. Even when no money is coming in, money is going out - license fees, error and omissions insurance, car expenses, broker fees, advertising, office supplies.

You want to start with OREA, Ontario Real Estate Association. There you can find out the licensing requirements. It used to be 3 courses, then 3 more during your first 2 years and after that 24 continuing education every two years. All of these cost money too.

Likely you will have no insurance, so no drug or dental or disability. You will not be elegible for employment insurance.
If you want those you will have to buy them yourself.

If you are a people person this can be a fun job. I get a real thrill out of finding just the right house for someone, or helping someone get a better price than they thought they would for their house.

There are different kinds of realtors and they come from really varied backgrounds. I do mostly single family residential, but many do condos or vacation properties, investment properties, commercial, farms, there are all sorts of specialties.

Ontario apprentice..should I change jobs?? Help need advice!?

We Answered:

suggest that he stays put in his current job, while taking some night technical courses particularly skills that his current employer may use, to improve his skills to that he will be hired permanently and promoted.

the 2nd best skill he should learn is stone masonay, as he already spent a few months doing that, and he shouuld forget about doing landscapping which is only a seasonable job.

but i would not suggest that he goes for the apprenticeship program, because after that, there is no guarantee that he will find a job, as he did with the stone masonary job.

i agree that you both should think about your future, but i also agree that your parents are right that the better choice is to stay put with his company for now, rather than going for the apprenticeship program.

meanwhile u should also get some job training so that you both can have a job and move out of your parents house.
