How does Career Services at Lighthouse Labs work?
At Lighthouse Labs, we believe that over 80% of training happens on the job—the first year of working as a developer, data analyst, or cybersecurity professional is like paid high-intensity training.

Through personalized career coaching, workshops, resume reviews, and employer partnerships, we provide the guidance and tools you need to navigate your job search with confidence.

How does Career Services work for International students?
Your ability to work in Canada depends entirely on your eligibility to obtain a work visa independently or find an employer willing to sponsor you. Unfortunately, Lighthouse Labs is legally unable to assist with work visas. Your ability to secure one will depend on factors such as your educational background, professional experience, desired job type, and country of origin.
We strongly encourage you to research your own immigration options by consulting Canadian Citizenship and Immigration or speaking with a licensed immigration lawyer as early as possible.
Our Career Services team will discuss your individual situation and create a plan to support your job search, whether in Canada or abroad. If you are not legally eligible to work in Canada, we cannot directly connect you with employers, but we can assist with resume workshops, technical interview coaching, and networking strategies to help you navigate the job market.
