For job seekers

I responded to a post on the group regarding a role and [BCN] linked me up with the person. I shared my resume as requested & had a brief call with the person who then shared my resume with the company. Within three weeks, I had the initial HR call, interview and got an offer. Prior to this, I had been job searching for 6 months.

Been searching for about a year and decided to join the PMM Bootcamp to expand my knowledge and pivot. … Those 2 sessions improved my job search mindset and I secured some interviews.

After 427 job applications, 56 short-listings, and 19 interviews, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve landed an offer …!

The community shared a job posting and a member of the community provided the referral for the company. She also guided me through the interview process and practiced mock presentations with me as par the project given by the company.

I got a couple of referrals and had an interview for one. I didn’t get the job but the group felt like Therapy for me. It made me understand I was not alone and I could see people success story. … Finally landed a job after a year and one month in the industry I always wanted.

After 10 months of searching for the right opportunity, I came across a flyer for a … job fair … At the event, I connected with two recruiters out of the ten companies present. One of them referred me to a hiring manager who happened to be on-site. … the week after that, I received a job offer.

I pivoted to AML/KYC/TF after I watched the recorded webinar on AML. … I had been searching for about 11 months.

Before joining the community, I wasn’t receiving any callbacks, but in my first week of applying what I’ve learned, I received two callbacks.

I reached out to someone in the community, who assisted with reviewing my cv and helped me prep. I aced the interview and I landed the role.

Saw a job ad reposted by the community, applied and got the job. Had been searching for a proper job about 4months.

I came across a job posting I was interested in, searched up employees on LinkedIn and found out I had a mutual from the community who was an employee. I reached out to her for a referral before submitting my application and she gladly accepted. … my offer came in a few weeks after and the rest is history.

The community supported me by encouraging me to apply for multiple jobs which was what landed me my role at the end.

The interview tips were really really helpful. … The sessions about building self confidence and establish the fact that we are a global expertise also helped.

Through the bootcamp organised by NLC, I received valuable support, including resume and portfolio reviews, interview preparation, and a renewed sense of confidence. … NLC and the PMM Bootcamp reminded me that my dreams are valid and worthy of pursuit.

Preparing for my interview …, I reached out to the group for guidance and [a community member] put me through with his friend who also works [there]. She was really helpful and Alas! I’m three months in the system ❤️

I have been job hunting for almost 10 months, I saw a temporary job posted on the group then immediately applied, I received a zoom interview email, did the interview & got the job in less than a week.

I had been searching for about four months when someone shared an opportunity … Later, we connected, discovered we had similar backgrounds, and she mentioned a potential opening within her team, which she kindly referred me for and I got the role.

My wife and I moved to Canada one year ago. Since then, my wife had been searching for a job but had no success. … [BCN] connected us with someone in the organization who referred my wife for the role. To the glory of God, my wife got the job.

It was in the community that I would sometimes see job postings, sometimes I’d reach out to people for referrals and honestly the general encouragement … made the 1 year period of job hunting a bit bearable.

On the group, an advert came up and another member of the group … was happy to give me a referral for the role. … I also met … another member of the group who had just gotten the role who took a look at my cv and provided advise on how to prepare.

I’d been job searching for quite a few months … BCN made the difference: I got a referral for a job from a sweet soul on here and that referral got my application noticed. Long story short I got the job!!!

I’ve been in Canada for roughly three months, and the job search had been pretty stressful—until my friend added me to the group. … I’m glad to share that I’ll be resuming work tomorrow. I’m equally thankful for the guidance and recommendation I received from members of the community.

I started job hunting while I was still in Lagos, and I joined the group about 3 months to my landing date. [BCN] posted the role and said someone that works for the company was willing to refer … someone else helped with interview tips for the role and that was it. I got the job.

I wasn’t even getting a lot of interviews and the few ones I got ended in “unfortunately”. … I finally got my dream job. … I just want to encourage anyone still looking for a job to keep trying.

[A coach] helped me get my role in 5 months of coaching with him since April 2025.

I have been seeing/reviewing the job postings for a while but was not actively searching. … Gave it a shot and it worked out great!

Been actively searching for 6months. … [A member] posted a job on the group and I sent her a dm which she referred me and I got the job. Just signed the offer.

I was looking for another job because my job contract at the time was ending. [An open position was] posted in the group … I applied for the position and i got it!

General encouragement and job postings. The way people come and share their experiences while looking for jobs has been really helpful to me.

I had been searching for a job for three months until I applied for one through a referral from a member of this group.

The community helped by providing the contact details if a group member, who did an internal referral on my application.

6months job search. … The community gave me that encouragement and support one needed in this job search journey.

[A community member] shared a job posting from her recruiter friend who was looking to hire some AML Analysts. I applied, got interviewed and got the role.

I have been searching for 2 years now. I got advice from [a coach] on how to position myself in the job market.

Zoom sessions focused on crafting a strong resume to interview prep and refining my overall job search approach.

Since moving to Canada, this is the first time I’ve witnessed a community come together so strongly to support one another. I’m truly grateful.

I found a role that I was a good fit for and I posted that I wanted a referral for the role on the group and two people reached out to me. … I like how supportive the community is. Keep up the good work!

A community member … walked me through answering the questions I had gotten for a case study during a recruitment process. He was supportive and truly helpful.

Appreciated the resume tailoring and informative zoom meetings.
