I recently attended a seminar for the Ontario provincial Second Career option for help with funding for changing careers.
I called several weeks in advance to find out a bit more. The receptionist was polite and helpful, providing the information I needed. I also looked up information on their website which was also up to date and easy to follow.
On the day of the seminar, I arrived early. The place was easy to find with lots of parking. Arriving at reception, I had to fill out an online visitors form, which was straightforward and easy. It was followed up by a more detailed form for the Second Career choice. I spoke with an agent briefly after to discuss my form. This was my only issue, where I would have preferred the conversation to be in a bit more of a private setting, away from the main seating area where anyone with good hearing could listen in. It was not a huge problem however, just a personal preference.
While waiting in the seating area, I was impressed with their library selection of books and magazines that could help anyone with looking for employment. There were lots of computers available for use. The actual atmosphere of the place was encouraging and folks appeared approachable, something I believe would help alleviate the sensitive matter of looking for help to find a job.
The seminar started on time. The conference room was comfortable and the presentation very decent and the facilitator, Preet, was knowledgeable and gave some real life example scenarios to help with the slide. Questions were answered in a professional manner.
In all, my experience here was a positive one.

Got useful information on finding employment in Brampton. Best part was the job openings listed on notice board. The staff was supportive in all aspects. No wifi. Can you your laptop with your personal hotspot. There are several seminars conducted every week. Check the reception for schedule. You can ask for help on getting registration for any of those seminars. Best information source for new comers to Canada.

Not a friendly atmosphere!
The reception gave a stranger look and attitude!
Being government funded, they should not be charging for at least a few copies of resume or job related prints!
This was my first day & i may not go there again unless for a job event!

Such an awesome place to improve yourself and get guidance to navigate your path towards your goal. They have been really helpful specially for newcomers. I get to expand my network through all workshops and networking events organized by them.

This is the worst place with the rudest service agents to look for guidance.
Had worst experience dealing with "Harpreet".
