"N19k per hour" - Lady opens up on job prospects in Canada, narrates how her sister landed a construction job in Canada

A young lady with TikTok handle @coleen_vee took to the platform to express her frustration with the prevalence of misleading information regarding job prospects in Canada. The young lady whose name is Coleen, specifically addressed a claim circulating on TikTok that construction work in Canada pays a maximum of $15 per hour. Drawing from personal experience, Coleen shared that her sister had worked in the construction industry in Canada and was, in fact, paid $21 per hour—a wage well above the minimum wage. In an effort to combat the dissemination of inaccurate information, Coleen urged viewers not to solely rely on TikTok for details about job opportunities in Canada or any other country. Emphasizing the importance of independent research, the young lady recommended using trusted sources such as Google to gather accurate and up-to-date information.

She asserted that conducting thorough research would enable individuals to make informed decisions about relocating and pursuing job opportunities in a new country. Coleen highlighted the potential dangers of blindly believing everything seen on social media platforms. She cautioned that unquestioningly trusting information from TikTok could hinder individuals from making significant decisions, such as relocating to Canada or any other country, based on false information. In her video, Coleen stressed the need for prospective immigrants to Canada to verify details independently. In her words; “It’s a lie when they say there are no jobs in Canada because there are jobs that will pay you way above the minimum wage which is $15. “My sister had worked with a construction company and she was paid $21 which is way both the minimum wage. I advise anybody who wants to come to Canada to come and not to listen to what those on TikTok rather the person should use Google to find out whatever he or she wants. “If you keep listening to what those on TikTok are saying you might never make the big move of relocating to Canada or any country of your choice because of the false information they’ve been passing and TikTok.” Netizens Reactions… @IVY reacted; “Gloria wey dey ment, person wey dey hustle for her training.” @temi commented; “I did landscape job, I was paid 25 dollars per hour.” @ronn6245 said; “What can you do with $21/hour in Canada? Construction pays more than $30/hour though.” @MaEVANGELIST said; “Nanny in Alberta pay now $25hourly, cleaning, housekeeping and construction pays $30 and above hourly, it’s not bad eh?” @user1259800277460 reacted; “It’s Gloria tech° with that her SpongeBob braided wig that is saying so many negative things about jobs in Canada.” @Mercymaurice said; “Thanks for this, please is it possible for someone to work and pay their tuition? I heard it is almost impossible.”  See below; @coleen_vee This is sad!🙁 . . . . . . #studyincanada🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 #workingincanada #relocatetocanadawithfamily #movingtocanada ♬ original sound – Coleen Vee |🇨🇦Lifestyle

To her surprise, the driver, who happened to be a senior manager at a reputable company, empathized with her situation and went above and beyond by offering her a job, despite her lack of qualifications for the position. The young woman initially found it difficult to believe that such a senior position in the company would be offered to her by an Uber driver. However, her skepticism soon turned into amazement as she discovered the true identity and professional standing of the driver. It turned out that the firm had recently halted their hiring process. However, recognizing Oluwatise’s potential, the Uber driver, who held a senior management position within the company, used his influence to persuade the company to reopen the application link specifically for her. Motivated by this unexpected opportunity, Oluwatise wasted no time and promptly applied for the job. To her delight, she received a prompt response and found herself attending an interview within a week. Demonstrating her capabilities she successfully secured the position, which remarkably allowed her to work remotely. Oluwatise wrote; “I always tell ppl to be extroverted and not stuck up. The job I’ve been working for the past seven months came from an Uber driver. I was sitting in his car talking with him and complained about being a broke college kid and he offered me a job that I wasn’t even qualified for. It literally was remote and everything. Turns out he was the senior manager at the company and they had just stopped hiring but he got them to reopen the link for me, interview me and get me hired within a week.“ See below; I always tell ppl to be extroverted and not stuck up.
