I've collected a list of some employment related web sites here:

If you find any good ones I don't have mail me :)

Great, we'll get you to do a talk at TLUG ;)

At least in writing I have to say your English is very good.

When I got to Canada I was told not to make it more than about 3 pages. 
Mine is longer than that but I have a long employment history to list. 
The length hasn't been a problem so far as I can tell.

Good luck with everything.  Migration is a big undertaking.  I'm an 
immigrant too and I didn't realise how big an undertaking until I got 
here.  I've been in Canada seven years next month, so I guess it worked 
out for me ;)

Just based on your posts here you seem to have initiative and a positive 
outlook so I think you'll do fine when you get to Canada.

Cheers,

Rob
