How we know

Read from the source, not self-reported

Every number on this page can be traced to a page we crawled or a posting we read. Full methodology →

  • Job postingsRead hourly from the applicant tracking systems behind company career sites, with portals filling the gaps. Reposts collapse into one record; a role closes when the company closes it.
  • Function and familyRole tree v2: every title classified into a function and a family, in every language.
  • LocationThe posting's stated location, normalised to city and country. This page counts roles located in Canada.
  • ExclusionsJob boards, directories and aggregators are kept out of company lists; staffing firms stay in only for their own hiring.
FAQ

Human resources hiring in Canada: questions

What counts as a human resources role?

A posting classified into the human resources function by our role tree (v2), whatever the title says. "Account Executive", "Vertriebsmitarbeiter" and "SDR" all land in the same function, then in a family such as recruiting and talent acquisition.

Why is Canada the posting's country, not the company's?

This page counts roles located in Canada. A US company hiring in Berlin counts; a Canadian company hiring in Paris does not. Company pages show the reverse view.

How fresh is it?

Career systems are checked hourly, so a role usually shows up the same day it opens and disappears the day it closes. Reposts collapse into one record.

Can I get the hiring manager?

Yes. For each company, the person the new hires report to, with a verified e-mail. The first 15 companies are on this page; the rest, and a weekly feed of new human resources hiring in Canada, is in the product.
