Largely white collar its largest employer is the Government of Canada, but it also boasts a legal and financial services centre, a burgeoning high-tech sector, several colleges, universities and major trade schools, plus a myriad of other businesses and organizations that serve government on a primary or secondary level. Health services, tourism and the arts play an important role as well and have shown considerable increase in employment even during recent economic downturns. Ottawa is a market that has placed considerable emphasis upon contract and temporary workers as well as full-time positions which means recruitment here requires an in-depth knowledge of Ottawa’s professional environment and its particularities in order to be able to address the needs of employers and job seekers there.
