Recap of the 2016 Job Market
If you remember hearing about last year’s job market, you’ll recall that Guelph was continuously listed as one of the top places to find employment in Canada. That’s a pretty major feat for a relatively small city. Guelph’s 2016 job market had a low unemployment rate and provided multiple job opportunities. This was great news for the growing population in Guelph with the boom in the housing market.
What Does the Guelph Job Market Look Like Currently?
Oftentimes, people turn to employment agencies if they are struggling to find jobs on their own or they need a fresh perspective on the job market. This year in Guelph, the unemployment rate is still low, and remains one of the lowest in Canada.
As of April 2017, the unemployment rate in Guelph is just 4.5%!
While this is a good statistic, there are still people searching for jobs with employment agencies. We’re sharing our insights on the 2017 job market in Guelph, giving you ideas on where you can find your next job. If you’re curious about the statistics, check out this Stats Canada link.
Are Jobs Still Available in Guelph? Yes!
Despite the rise in Guelph’s housing market and overall population, there are still plenty of jobs available! Many jobs can be found within the Guelph University area, the healthcare field, and with local businesses that are opening up in business parks citywide.
In the years to come, the city will also see growth within the Manufacturing sector, as Ontario has invested a sum of money into the sector. The project will be completed by 2020, and has created 31 new jobs already. Ontario has also committed to a five-year Business Growth Initiative, which is creating jobs in places like Guelph where small businesses are able to grow and be innovative.
