Today we want to share Martin Kariuki’s journey with you. He is a system architect from Kenya who got hired in Canada with VanHack! Martin worked hard to become an outstanding candidate, and he never gave up on his dream of living in Canada. Two weeks after relocating to Toronto Martin sat down with community manager Maria Sanchez and shared some tips and advice. Do you want to be the next one? We are waiting for you!
“I learned a lot throughout the process, so the interview went really well. I really appreciate the platform and the people who helped me. They take care of you. I\’m sure once you go through that process you are able to quickly land jobs and be good at interviews”, Martin says of the preparation he received from VanHack’s team.
How VanHack helped Martin move to Canada
Moving from Kenya after getting hired in Canada was not easy. Leaving your country means building an entire new life elsewhere. So Martin talks about how VanHack helped him relocate. “After landing the job you have a consultant who works with the immigration process. They link you up with people who are experts in things like real state and even some useful links on opening a bank account and all those details. A newcomer maybe won’t have any friends or family in Toronto so they really went a long way into getting those contacts”.
