Chosen as one of Best Employers for New Canadians for 2011:
By Kristina Leung and Richard Yerema, Mediacorp Canada Inc. staff editors  ( Mar 27, 2011)

Some of the reasons why Deloitte & Touche LLP was selected as one of Best Employers for New Canadians 2011:
  • offers cultural awareness training sessions for employees who are new to Canada to help familiarize them with the Canadian work environment
  • the Toronto office works with ACCESS Careers to connect internationally trained candidates to employment opportunities within the financial industry
  • in the past year, hosted an information session for students from Labour Market Access for Newcomers at the Newcomer Centre of Peel -- the event included information on employment at Deloitte and enabled employees to share their own experiences as newcomers to Canada
  • has participated in the Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council's (TRIEC) Mentoring Partnership program since 2005, with over 200 employees serving as mentors to new Canadian job-seekers
  • is a corporate sponsor of Assisting Local Leaders with Immigrant Employment Strategies (ALLIES), and in 2009, the Montreal office hosted the launch of Allies Montréal
  • provides counselling and support for internationally trained employees who are working to complete the Chartered Accountants (CA) reciprocity exam
"The one-on-one mentorship that I have received from my Partners at Deloitte has been very key to my integration into the Canadian culture. The fact that we foster an open culture where we can discuss challenges faced particularly in business setting has been very helpful for me. As a team, we have periodic social events which has provided me with an opportunity to build a social network that has further supported my integration into the Canadian community. Many of my clients and colleagues have graciously hosted my husband and myself for holidays to ensure that we felt a sense of belonging to this country. The firm also makes a great effort to embrace diversity in experiences from other countries and cultures which provide tremendous confidence in getting started here."
— Poonam S., Senior Manager
