The Immigrant Networks and National Bank Career Advantage Program delivers proven, AI-powered career tools and career coaching at no EXTRA cost. Plus, for a limited time, newcomers could get up to $600 cashback.
Immigrant Networks and National Bank have launched the Career Advantage Program, the first time a major Canadian bank has paired financial products with direct career support for newcomers.
The program gives newcomers no-cost access to Immigrant Networks’ full suite of AI-powered career tools and coaching sessions. Plus, they could get up to $600 in cashback for a limited time when they open a qualifying National Bank checking account and credit card, and meet other conditions.
What Sets This Apart
Most newcomer programs stop at financial products. This one does not. Immigrant Networks and National Bank Career Advantage Program is built on a simple premise: Newcomers don’t just need a bank account when they arrive; they need to land a job.
Canada welcomes 380,000 new permanent residents each year, along with hundreds of thousands of international students and temporary workers. Despite strong credentials and experience, many spend months, sometimes years, working below their qualifications. The barrier is not ability. It is access.
What’s Included
Newcomers who open a qualifying National Bank account and credit card receive:
- No-cost access to the Immigrant Networks career platform: Includes 12 coaching sessions per month for three months, Speed Networking calls, weekly matches, and access to WhatsApp groups, and AI-powered career support, all worth $399.
- A welcome promotion from National Bank: Up to $600 in cashback when opening a new account and meeting the conditions; visit https://immigrantnetworks.com/national-bank-career-advantage-program-c/
- Access to Canada’s #1 newcomer networking community: With a 70% job placement success rate for members who complete five or more networking matches.
- The Immigrant Networks AI Suite: purpose-built for the Canadian job market, covering resume optimization (Rezume.ca), interview preparation (AIInterviewCoach.ca), and career guidance (CareerPathway.ca ).
In Their Words
“When I came to Canada, I had the credentials but not the connections. Most newcomers today face the same challenge. What makes this program different is that we’re not just handing people a brochure; we’re giving them the actual tools, the coaching, and a financial partner who believes in their success from day one.”
— Nick Noorani, Founder & CEO, Immigrant Networks“At National Bank, we are committed to empowering newcomers to build in Canada; they are future leaders, entrepreneurs, and positive contributors to Canada’s communities. This initiative reflects our commitment to being a true partner in their journey from the very first day.”
— Caroline Roy, National Bank of Canada
