What people say about us
“
The team at MCG have been a serious force multiplier for our talent strategy. Through their Workplace Training program, we were able to take more risk on candidates going through work transitions. The candidates benefited from rapid upskilling and reskilling, and we benefited from new hires to support our company’s growth. The entire MCG team has been very supportive, responsive, and encouraging to both the employers and candidates in the program. Highly recommended!

A special thank you to Leah for being so helpful, attentive, and proactive throughout the hiring process. Thanks to their support, we were able to connect with a qualified candidate who is now joining our team. We’re looking forward to continued collaboration! Highly recommend MCG Careers to any employer looking for reliable staffing support.

Today’s job fair has been amazing. I interviewed 13 people, and they’re a great quality of candidates. They had different backgrounds, from welding, construction, and mechanical assistant. It was such a productive day. Thanks for having us. I must say, we got a really good pool of candidates, and we are very happy to have awesome candidates and excited to work more with MCG Careers.

Is there a cost to access Employer Advantage services?
Employer Advantage services are provided at no cost. The program is funded by the Government of Alberta to help employers strengthen their workforce, address hiring challenges, and connect with the people and resources they need.
There are no membership fees, hidden costs, or obligations. You can use as much or as little support as your business needs.
Are we obligated to hire candidates through this service?
No, there is no obligation to hire specific candidates. Employer Advantage is here to support your workforce needs, not pressure you into hiring.
You decide if, when and who you hire. We can help you connect with potential candidates, but every hiring decision remains yours.
Who can access these services?
Employer Advantage is available to Calgary and Red Deer employers of all sizes and across all industries. Whether you are a small business hiring your first employee, a growing company building your team or an established organization looking for workforce solutions, you can access our services.
