VanHack – A Beacon of Opportunity
VanHack is a leading Talent Marketplace renowned for facilitating nearly 2,000 hires and relocations to Canada and Europe. VH’s mission is to bridge the gap between top companies seeking talent and skilled professionals looking to fulfill their dreams of working abroad.
The Canadian Engineer Office – A Game Changer
VanHack’s Canadian Engineer Office is designed to address a specific challenge that numerous professionals face globally. Many talented individuals work remotely for American, European, or other non-Canadian companies, and while they desire to relocate to North America have been challenged through difficult and complicated visa/ immigration processes.
Canada places top with 3 of the top 10 most livable cities. Since 2017, The Canadian Government has enticed tech workers to move and relocate. Multiple working visas have been created with easy pathways towards permanent residency, immigration and citizenship.
Employers are thrilled about Time Zone Alignment, opportunities for training and development, meet in person etc.
Thanks to the Canadian Engineer Office program, you can apply to work from Canada for your current employer, with VanHack acting as your Employer of Record. This means you can continue doing your same job (or even getting promoted), the only difference is you will be paid and employed by VanHack.
