হয়তো অনেকেই অলরেডি জেনে গেছেন, তারপরেও বিগত বছরগুলিতে দেখা গেছে ৫০% এর বেশি ক্যান্ডিডেট যারা কল পেয়েছেন তারা এই সাইটের পোস্টিং দেখেই আবেদন করেছিলেন। এটি Shift Leader পজিশনের জন্য। এটি একটি PT পজিশন। সম্ভবত আপনাকে কমপক্ষে সপ্তাহে ৪দিন available থাকতে হবে (weekend সহ). এর পর ইচ্ছা করলে আরো শিফট পিক আপ করতে পারেন। অন্তত আমার এপ্লিকেশন এর সময় এমনটি ছিল। আপনার মোটামুটি একটু সুপারভাইজিং অভিজ্ঞতা এবং রিলেটেড ডিগ্রী থাকলে হবে। PT কাজ হিসাবে এটি একটি ভালো চাকরি। বেতন বছরে $81,411.20 থেকে $95,638.40 এর মধ্যে। আপনার যোগ্যতা এবং অভিজ্ঞতা অনুযায়ী prorated স্যালারি পাবেন।
আমি সিটির পোস্টিংটি কপি করে নিচে দিলাম। ভালো করে পড়লে আপনার সব প্রশ্নের উত্তর ওখান থেকে পাবেন। আবেদন করতে হলে আপনাকে সিটির ওয়েবসাইটে গিয়ে অনলাইনে আবেদন করতে হবে। আবেদনের শেষ তারিখ ২৫সে জানুয়ারী। তবে আগে ভাগে আবেদন করা ভালো কারণ, শেষ দিনের জন্য ফেলে রাখলে আপনার জন্য অসুবিধা হতে পারে। ওদের প্রায় ২০ জনের মতো লোক লাগবে। সোশ্যাল ওয়ার্ক সোশ্যাল সার্ভিস, হিউমান সার্ভিস বিষয়ের ডিগ্রী এবং রিলেটেড অভিজ্ঞতা হলে ভালো হয়, তবে বেশি রিলেটেড অভিজ্ঞতা হলে একদম ওই বিষয়গুলি ছাড়া অন্য বিষয় হলেও চলবে।
আপনি আবেদন করে ইন্টারভিউ কল পেলে আমাদেরকে জানাবেন, আমরা আপনাকে আপনার প্রস্তুতির জন্য যথা সম্ভব সহযোগিতা করবো।
খেয়াল রাখবেন আপনার রেসুমে এবং কভার লেটার যেন জব ডেসক্রিপশন এবং রিকোইরেমেন্ট অনুযায়ী হয়।
রেসুমে লেখার জন্য সহযোগিতা দরকার হলে আপনার নিকটস্থ কোনো এমপ্লয়মেন্ট সেন্টারে গিয়ে সাহায্য নিন। এখন আমাদের দেশি ইমিগ্র্যান্ট দ্বারা পরিচালিত অনেক প্রতিষ্ঠান আছে।
আবারো বলছি, পোস্টিংটি ভালো করে পড়লে আপনার সব প্রশ্নের উত্তর পাবেন। আর এই চাকরি শুধুমাত্র কানাডিয়ান নাগরিক অথবা PR কার্ড হোল্ডারদের জন্য।

Here’s a chance to make a difference in the lives of people that are homeless. Working within the City of Toronto’s Shelter, Support & Housing Administration Division, you’ll join a dedicated team delivering shelter services while promoting stable housing solutions. Are you ready to lead?
NOTE TO CURRENT CITY OF TORONTO LOCAL 79 PART-TIME EMPLOYEES: If you are a current City of Toronto Local 79 part-time employee, you must indicate that you are a “Current Part-time employee” in the “Custom Information” section of your on-line application form, and provide your “Employee Number” in order to be considered for this job opportunity.
Reporting to the Manager, Program Supervisor and/or designate, and working as part of a collaborative management team, you will supervise all shift operations involved in providing services throughout a 24/7 operation, to meet client needs in a client-focused, holistic manner in accordance with divisional policies and procedures and applicable legislation. For more information about the City of Toronto’s Programs and Services, please visit our website at https://www.toronto.ca/community-people/community-partners/emergency-shelter-operators/about-torontos-shelter-system/see-our-shelters/.
As a Shift Leader, you’ll provide day-to-day supervision to assigned staff, ensuring effective teamwork, high standards of work quality and organizational performance, customer service excellence, and continuous learning, while encouraging innovation, evaluating performance and leading staff development through motivation and training.
Working collaboratively with other supervisory staff, you’ll facilitate coordinated Housing First case management services for individuals and families to assist them in achieving housing stability in the community, ensuring clients receive appropriate counselling, support or referrals, and mediating on their behalf with other service providers. We will also count on you to gather and maintain statistical data and other information on programs for reports, forecast needs and monitor policy and program activities, recommend options and implement changes to improve operational performance and service delivery.
Your ability to manage administrative duties associated with shelter or institutional operations will prove invaluable as you administer various client funds, TTC tokens, taxis, and voucher issuance, and ensure that appropriate controls and records are kept. Managing labour relations will be an integral part of this role, including hearing grievances, along with monitoring program operations, and providing leadership in service planning and program policy development that incorporates identified needs with input from clients and community agencies.
Skilled in customer service, communication and presentations, you can work effectively with clients, service providers, the general public and/or staff to address service inquiries, requests and/or complaints, apply verbal de-escalation and crisis prevention techniques in defusing potentially volatile situations, and compile, analyze and disseminate data and apply it to shelter practices and operations.
