11 Canadian companies hiring in February
The employment landscape saw a unique shift in January. While the economy lost 25,000 jobs, the unemployment rate actually cooled to 6.5 percent — the lowest level since late 2024. Statistics Canada says this drop was driven by a significant decline in the number of people actively looking for work.
For those in the hunt, this creates a strategic opening. With less noise in the talent pool and a smaller number of active seekers, now is a great time to stand out to hiring managers. Whether it’s companies building the future with quantum computing or improving patient care with innovative healthtech, companies across the Canadian tech scene are still scaling their teams.
Your next great role is waiting in the list below.
