Post-Baccalaureate Diploma in Business Management - Batch of 2023

4.1

Accept, Adapt, and Explore - supportive faculty, friendly classmates, safe environment for growth.

Tips: Tough to adjust as the shift is massive, but that's what you chose. Be ready to adapt, accept the change, and work hard. Not a scholarship student, so paid from home; try to get by with part-time jobs; lower expenses to a need-only basis. Know that there is a struggle where you prioritize your needs, but it will go based on the work you put in. Make good friends and stay productive. Good university, place, and country, but self-learning is important. Become self-sufficient anywhere.

Likes (Safety): Safe city, good community, public safety. While all will have their own experiences, I personally enjoyed my time there with good people, a friendly community, and mutual respect. Small town, so it's important to respect the community standards, know that you are choosing to go to their home, and they are accepting you. Provide that same respect back to them and grow together.

Dislikes (Internships): Landing an internship can be a real hustle since it mostly comes down to what employers want, your past experience, and your specific program. The openings are out there, but the competition is brutal and nothing is handed to you on a platter. While you can get some help through career services, job boards, resume reviews, and career fairs, you still have to be incredibly proactive and do most of the heavy lifting yourself. Finding the right role takes a ton of persistence, aggressive networking, and mass-applying to openings. It's also super important to stay on your professors' and counselors' radars.

A diverse campus with strong engineering and business teaching.

Tips: The most important thing is to look after the scholarships which can help you to have a great life ahead. Keep your eye on new scholarships. Keep in contact with students from the college. Cultural difference is not a problem. Indian community here is quite helpful. Good luck with sending your applications.

Likes (Part time work): The part-time work is an important thing and the off campus opportunities are flexible here. On-campus jobs are available for students having good grades. You can easily manage your studies along with the job. The average payout is quite good like in other states. You can expect 9-15$.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): It's a great hub for post-study employment opportunities. Many companies extend sponsorship for work visas, particularly in fields related to technology and engineering. The salary packages here are among the most competitive in the market. So, the array of post-study jobs makes the college a great destination for students from India.

Easy to adjust to in Canada.

Tips: I believe that Canada is the country one can except the least transition from when coming from India. Homely vibes aunties and uncle everywhere, meet and greet going on. Engineering courses are good but I guess now Germany and Dutch are the most sought-after destination for me. Canada is working pretty well, no complaint at all.

Likes (Safety): Constant guideline updation is something that the college does to make students aware of the environment. Do's and Don'ts should be read carefully students don't do this and then complain to the college about bicycle thefts and other problems. Security issues are rarely seen no breaches.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Co-op internship has not started yet so it can get me hired. College has helped me with getting IT but jobs I don't know about drives. I don't think that it happens in Canada. Campus drives and placements mostly happen in India. In Canada you should know how to apply what you have learned yourself.

Good university to be in.

Tips: Don't take up an on-campus accommodation trust me not worth it, live outside but nearby. There are no as such international scholarships but students who pass with over 75% overall grades are awarded with an entry level scholarship of 500$. Professors are all Ph.D. holders and have international publications. The area is beautiful with good scenery and it feels good to be under a cloud blue sky. Tuition fee is also not that much so it makes it a good university to study.

Likes (Internships): Co-op jobs are offered to most of the courses. Internship is based on selection so make sure to meet all the criteria. Comparing it with placements internship opportunities are good for my course also internships are provided. University website is constantly updated so keep a check!

Dislikes (Post study jobs): University doesn't provide much, you graduate then you are on your own. No campus placements as far as I have heard since I'm still studying but the university does help with part-time jobs so yes this is the thing. There should be something for placements as most of the students come to Canada to secure a job.

Cultural hotpot! Explore the beauty of untouched Canada

Tips: An Indian boy in a Canadian house was great. Nice people and experience for a foreign student. I had the opportunity to explore the beautiful Cape Breton, interact with hundreds of locals, and understand the economy and hospitality industry. Overall, thoroughly satisfied with the exposure offered by the Government of Nova Scotia and Cape Breton University.
