The Greater Toronto Area, of which Vaughan is a part, is the single most popular destination for new residents in the country. This is because the GTA is where the money is. It's got more jobs than anywhere else in Canada, and that's why Vaughan should be your choice. By living in Vaughan, you not only get to call a quieter suburb home, but you also have easy access to jobs all over the Greater Toronto Area, thanks to the area's high interconnectivity via highways, public transit and Toronto taxi cabs. Here are some of the jobs you might find and where you might find them.
Tourism and Entertainment
As you might expect, not all of the many millions of people who come to the Toronto area each year stay permanently. Many are on vacation, which means they need to be fed, housed, and entertained during their stay. You might find yourself doing landscaping in Toronto for a fancy hotel, serving hot meals in Mississauga to businessmen, operating rides at a theme park in Vaughan, or entertaining crowds by acting in an off-Broadway play, but Toronto is by far the best place to find these jobs.
Business and Finance
Thanks to the Toronto Stock Exchange, the city of Toronto is one of the most financially powerful cities in the entire world. This has attracted thousands of businesses, financial firms, banks, and brokerages. These companies represent job opportunities to bureaucrats, administrators, actuaries, statisticians, managers, brokers, stock traders, and other financial pros as well as the catering services in Toronto who serve them. The best places to find these jobs are in downtown Toronto and downtown Mississauga.
Industry and Manufacturing
Being located on the Great Lakes close to the border with the United States makes the Toronto area a logical hub for producing products to be distributed throughout the world. A job in industry and manufacturing might mean opening your own Brampton driving school, working to unload a container ship, driving a transfer truck, operating machinery in a factory, or engineering new processes. The best places to find these jobs are the outlying suburbs, like Vaughan, Pickering, Oshawa, and Brampton.
Education and Health Care
The boom industries of health care and education do particularly well anywhere there's a high concentration of people to treat or teach, and there are over 8 million in the GTA. Opportunities in this industry are for personal care worker at companies like Home Health Care Toronto, doctors, nurses, techs, and administrators in hospitals and clinics, teachers for all age levels, and post-secondary education instructors in colleges, universities, and career training institutes. These kinds of jobs are found all over the GTA, but the more rural locales are more likely to have openings than the urban ones.
