Impossible to find a job!

HI,


I have lived here in Toronto for five months now and I still haven't been able to get a job as a Social Worker, even with my 20+ years experience. Before I moved here I read that Canada was such a welcoming land and that it was easy for immigrants to get a job. Pfft! That is so not true. Maybe you can get a job at Starbucks (which I did and hated every second of it) or Tim Hortons, but not a job that is in line with your qualifications. I speak English fluently, so that shouldn't be a problem. Is it the famous "Canadian Experience" I've heard about? How can you get that experience if no one is willing to give you a chance? I am deeply disappointed, but haven't given up. There must be something out there...Has anyone else the same experience? Is there anyone out there that has managed to get a qualified job - and in that case - how did you do it?

Please help.

I did not find the right solution from the internet.
