Finding Paid and Volunteer Work in the Environment

This manual is intended to give you an introduction to the Environmental Volunteer Network (EVN) and to seeking volunteer or paid work in the environment in the Greater Toronto Area.

1.0 An Introduction to the Environmental Volunteer Network

The Environmental Volunteer Network (EVN) is a network of organizations working together to identify and promote volunteer opportunities in the Greater Toronto Area, and to provide a central location for conservation-minded volunteers. The goal of the EVN is to provide group and individual volunteers with hands-on work experience and education in the field of conservation and environment, while providing non-profit environmental and municipal agencies with ready, willing and able environmental volunteers. Original funding for this program was provided by the Ontario Trillium Foundation (www.trilliumfoundation.org); sustaining funding has been provided by Manulife Financial (www.manulife.com). The EVN represents a partnership of the Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants (OCASI), Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA), and many environmental groups and municipal partners. Our volunteers are a diverse group including high school and university students, working professionals, newcomers to Canada, retirees, and more. They volunteer for many reasons, including:

• to gain valuable job experience and training, • to learn more about conservation and environment, • to network and make connections with environmental professionals, • to give back to the community and environment, • to complete educational and government requirements, • to meet other volunteers and interns, • and to have fun.

1.1 What the EVN Program expects from Volunteers

We are interested in working with volunteers who, like us, are committed to protecting, restoring and celebrating the natural environment. We will work hard to provide you with a rewarding, engaging volunteer experience in which you can develop as a

professional and as a person. Once you have completed a Volunteer Application Form, we will try to place you based on your interests, experience, and schedule. The EVN also publishes a bi-weekly e-newsletter, Volunteer Tracks, that will keep you informed of upcoming employment, volunteer, and educational opportunities. Once you have found a suitable placement, the organization with which you work will provide you with the training you need to clarify your role and responsibilities, and any safety requirements, so that you are equipped to do the work. In return, we ask the following:

• fulfillment of commitments • reliability and punctuality • a high degree of professionalism • feedback on our programs and suggestions for improvement • respect for the organization you are representing • successful police screening for volunteers or interns age 18 or older • complete attendance at an orientation session (2 hours plus reading) • completion of a application/registration form

2.0 EVN Partners The EVN is a partnership project by Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA) and the Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants (OCASI), with Advisory Input from the Sustainability Network, City of Toronto Environmental Volunteers and the Toronto Volunteer Centre.

2.1 Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA) Toronto and Region Conservation (www.trca.on.ca) is a partnership organization committed to protecting, restoring and celebrating the natural environment in the Toronto region through the development and application of watershed plans, innovative environmental science and education programs.

2.2 Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants (OCAS I)

OCASI (www.ocasi.org) was formed in 1978 to act as a collective voice for immigrant and refugee serving agencies and to coordinate responses to shared needs and concerns. OCASI is a registered charity governed by a volunteer board of directors. Its membership is comprised of more than 150 community-based organizations in the province of Ontario.

2.3 City of Toronto Environmental Volunteers (TEV) Started in 1996 - TEV (www.city.toronto.on.ca/wes/techservices/involved/outreach/tev) was formerly known as Waste Watchers. Based on the notion that public education plays

a key role in increasing awareness and participation in environmental programs, TEV has trained more than 600 volunteers and presently provides the City with over 27,500 hours of volunteer service per year.

2.4 The Volunteer Centre of Toronto The Volunteer Centre of Toronto (www.volunteertoronto.on.ca), established in 1973, is the prime resource in the community for the recruitment and referral of individuals and training in all areas of volunteer management. The focus of the Volunteer Centre of Toronto is to promote volunteerism to individuals in the community through creative promotional activities. In 2001 the Volunteer Centre served over 500 000 individuals and over 2,000 community organizations. The Centre provides referrals through personal interviews, media and on-line referrals, and offer consultations on various issues affecting volunteerism today.

2.5 Multicultural Inter-Agency Group of Peel (MIAG) MIAG’s (www.miag.ca) mission is to enhance the effectiveness of human care organizations serving the culturally diverse community of Peel.

2.6 The Sustainability Network The Sustainability Network (www.sustain.web.ca) works with environmental non-profits to make them more effective and efficient. By improving management and leadership skills and fostering organizational development, the Network helps to strengthen the environmental community. The Network is about sustaining the organizations that work on sustainability.

3.0 A Brief Guide to Finding Volunteer or Paid Work in the Environment Seeking a volunteer position is not much different than seeking a paid employment position. Volunteer jobs, like paid ones, are often competitive and require a high degree of professionalism. When applying for volunteer work, applicants are often required to submit a resume and cover letter or participate in an interview. Although volunteer positions are unpaid, many of the high-skilled volunteer jobs are highly competitive, so don’t be discouraged if you don’t find a placement right away. It is important, once you have established a goal as to what kind of job you want, to know where to find opportunities. Many environmental jobs are posted on specific listservs, on newsletters, in the media, and directly on company’s websites, and it is useful to check these sources regularly. However, the majority of paid work is found as a result of ‘soft contacts’, or people you meet in your field and impress with your skills and knowledge. This kind of networking usually happens when you meet a potential employer at a job fair, meeting, social event,

or as a volunteer, and they are impressed by your knowledge and skill. You need to be creative in finding good networking opportunities. Consider participation in one or more of the festivals and events listed on the Planet Friendly web sit: www.PlanetFriendly.net/calendar, or check TRCA’s calendar of events at www.trca.on.ca/events/calendar. You can also choose outdoor activities offered by the Outing Club (www.outingclubofeastyork.org) or meet employers and people in the field at the Annual Canadian Environment Conference and Tradeshow. As a result of such networking, when a job becomes available at the employer’s organization, she or he may remember your skill and knowledge as a good fit for the position. This scenario is very common so networking is perhaps the most important part of job-searching in any sector, including the environment. That is why ‘keeping your ear to the ground’, or knowing who the major environmental organizations are, what events are happening in the sector, and what the major environmental trends and regulations are, is a key factor in a successful job hunt. One of your tasks is to determine how your skills can contribute to this and other environmental ‘hotspots’. A great source of information for employment trends in the environment industry is the Canadian Council for Human Resources in the Environment Industry’s (CCHREI) Environmental Labour Market Report, found at http://www.cchrei.ca. Exciting topics are discussed in workshops offered by Ontario Sustainable Energy Association (www.ontario-sea.org/workshops.html). Consider also establishing your own trends-tracking or electronic news-clipping system to help determine emerging environmental issues. For example, the Google NewsAlerts service is straightforward, easy to use, and free. Simply enter the word or phrase you want to track (which could be a corporate name, topic or industry), enter your e-mail address, and you’re set up to receive regular messages pointing to recent news articles of relevance. If you find the search results aren’t precise enough, spend some time studying the advanced search syntax used within Google, and make that part of the search topic you’re tracking. Yahoo offers a similar service; Yahoo News Alerts. It is worth noting that, despite big budget announcements supporting the environment, the Environmental field is on a lower pay scale than most professions requiring similar skills. Some environmental practitioners find it difficult to move their lives forward - buy a house, car and establish a similar lifestyle to their peers in better paid professions. The ‘contract syndrome’ is another challenge of this field, in which many find it difficult to establish long-term careers and find themselves working one temporary contract after another. These challenges are largely the result of a sector that is dependent on political will and government funding, which can change with each election or budget. If environment is your field of choice, it is likely that you choose it with a passion for the issues and not a desire to be highly paid. Still, it is wise to know the potential financial challenges from the beginning of your job search.

3.1 The Process There are a number of different ways you can go about finding volunteer and/or paid opportunities, and there is no scientific formula that works every time. Three key strategies are: 1. Be innovative,

2. Manage your time, and 3. Make it easy for an employer to hire you. In other words, look beyond traditional job postings on-line and in newspapers, spend the most time using the most effective job-searching strategies, and provide tools to employers such as wage subsidies that help them overcome budget and space issues that might prevent them from hiring you. Looking for a job is a full-time job itself, and it is important to manage the process well. It is a good idea to keep a job-hunting calendar and track your progress. Try to manage your time so that you spend the most time on activities that have proven most effective for other job-hunters. Here are four steps you may find helpful:

1. Know yourself Assess your values, skills, aptitudes, abilities and interests. You might consider participating in career and self-assessment programs where you can gain new tools for self-assessment with the help of a career councellor. Such programs are offered by Community Centres throughout the Greater Toronto Area. Call the Information Warehouse at 416-631-1087 or visit www.employmentflyers.org to find the Community Centre near you.

2. Know the market Know who the major environmental players are in the private, public, and non-profit sectors. Know the big events to attend, the trends, the local regulations and the jargon (the words and acronyms specific to your field). Employers are looking for knowledgeable employees so that they can save time and money on training. It is your job to make it easy for them to hire you, so be prepared to demonstrate your knowledge. The best sources of information are people already working in the environmental field. Ask them for 15-minute information meetings to learn their opinions and advice.

3. Form a Strategy Once you have assessed your skills and learned the market, and are confident you have the knowledge and skills you need, decide your approach. Fill in any gaps in your knowledge or experience. You may want to enroll in internship programs to gain local experience. Or you may wish to upgrade your skills at a local college or adult learning centre (see www.211toronto.ca for a list of adult learning centres). Remember that most jobs are found through networking, so leave yourself lots of time to attend environmental events and meet people working in the field. Always let them know you are looking for work, and what you can do for them.

4. The Search is On Successful job-hunters have used different strategies, but it is important to remember that only 10-15% of job openings are advertised; the rest are called ‘the hidden job market.’ If you spend eight hours a day on your job search, you should probably spend 85% of that networking in order

to access the hidden job market. You may wish to register with a Recruiter (see www.directoryofrecruiters.com). Attending events is a great way to meet people in the field. You may also wish to contact environmental employers to request information interviews, which are meetings where you request information about the market, who is hiring and what the trends are. Make good use of Networking Cards, business cards that list your name, field, and 3-5 of your top skills. Another way to really get to know a potential employer is to join a Mentorship Program, such as those offered by the City of Toronto (call JobStart, 416-231-2295), University of Toronto, and the Maytree Foundation (www.maytree.com). Most often positions in the hidden job market are filled or created when candidates come to an employer’s attention through employee recommendations, referrals from trusted associates, recruiters, or direct contact. In many cases the employer does not actually know the candidate ahead of time, but the candidate is successful because she comes “pre-recommended” by someone the employer trusts. Accessing the hidden job market usually requires researching employers in your field, cold calling them for information meetings or interviews (with many rejections along the way), and most importantly, networking. Networking is simply talking to people, a lot of people, and letting them know what you can do and the kind of work you are looking for. Networking can be done through personal contacts (friends and family), professional contacts (colleagues, employers, association members), Internet contacts (subscribe to mailing lists and join discussion groups in your field), and all of your contacts’ contacts. Let it be known far and wide that you have skills to offer. If you are currently volunteering it is also important to view your volunteer work as a great way to network, meet professionals and learn more about how the environmental sector functions – ask a lot of questions and be prepared to demonstrate your best work in order to gain positive references.

3.2 Career Resources In many cases it is a good idea to work with a local Settlement Agency (for Newcomers) or Employment Resource Centre, where there are people who can help you in your job search. Immigrant-serving Agencies provide settlement services designed to help newcomers to Canada adjust to life here. They provide culturally sensitive programs in many languages. These services try to help you with all your needs during the process of settling into your new community, including finding employment.

Settlement services are often free, offered in languages other than English and French, and always confidential.

In Ontario you also have access to many Employment Resource Centres, where you will find staff who will help you create or review your resume, have access to computers to make changes

to your resume and many other resources to assist you in your job search. These centres are free and have helped many thousands of people find work.

Some good starting points for finding Settlement Organizations, Employment Resource Centres, and other employment services, are listed below:

• www.settlement.org, an online information warehouse for Newcomers to Canada. • The Multicultural Inter-Agency Group of Peel has more than 100 member groups who

can help you access free community services of all kinds, including employment, www.miag.ca,

• ACCES (Accessible Community Counselling & Employment Services), an employment and training agency that offers a wide range of free employment services for job seekers and employers; 489 College St. St. 100, Tel. 416.921.1800, www.accestrain.com

• Possibilities: www.poss.ca, Toronto’s Virtual Employment Resource Centre, • 211 Toronto: www.211.ca, lists local Resource Centres and Adult Learning

Centres for Newcomers and other Canadians, • Career Edge (for recent graduates), www.careeredge.ca, Career Bridge (for

newcomers), www.careerbridge.ca, and Ability Bridge (for those with disabilities), www.abilityedge.ca), offer paid internships with support

Remember to make hiring you as easy an option as possible for prospective employers – it helps if you can offer them a wage-subsidy, which occurs when an outside organization can pay part of all of your salary during an internship, which gives you a chance to prove your abilities and make more professional contacts while earning a salary. Ask about wage subsidies at your employment centre or settlement agency, and also check out the options at Human Resources Development Canada (www.hrdc-drhc.gc.ca).

3.3 Certification When seeking paid or volunteer employment, it may be useful to become a member of the relevant associations in your field. Certification and/or membership does not guarantee employment in the field of your choice, and can require an investment of time and money with a long-term commitment. However, membership can help prospective employers feel more comfortable that you are a skilled and credible candidate, so it is worth carefully exploring various associations and what they have to offer, because each association is very different. It is most likely worth your time to at least be familiar with the associations and their regulations. You may wish to contact the Canadian Environmental Certification Approvals Board (CECAB – www.cecab.org), which was established in 1997 in order to develop and administer a national certification program for Canadian environmental practitioners, to find out more about certification. Below you can also find a partial list of Ontario, Canadian, and some international Associations you may wish to explore:

• Air & Waste Management Association (www.awma.org)

• Association of Canadian Educational Resources (www.acer-acre.org) • Association of Ontario Land Surveyors (www.aols.org) • Association of Professional Geoscientists of Ontario (www.apgo.net) • Atmospheric Integrated Research Network for Science, Health, and Economic

Development (www.airshed.org) • Canadian Association of Certified Planning Technicians (www.cacpt.org) • Canadian Botanical Association (www.cba-abc.ca) • Canadian Council of Professional Engineers (www.ccpe.ca) • Canadian Environmental Auditing Association (www.ceaa-acve.ca) • Canadian Forestry Association (www.canadianforestry.com) • Canadian Groundwater Association (www.cgwa.org) • Canadian Horticultural Council (www.hortcouncil.ca) • Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum (www.cim.org) • Canadian Land Reclamation Association (www.clra.ca) • Canadian Society of Environmental Biologists (www.cseb-scbe.org) • Canadian Society of Exploration Geophysicists (www.cseg.ca) • Canadian Water and Wastewater Association (www.cwwa.ca) • Canadian Water Resources Association (www.cwra.org) • Canadian Watershed Management Network (www.cwwa.ca/net_watershed_e.asp) • Conservation Council of Ontario (www.greenontario.org) • Environmental Studies Association of Canada (www.thegreenpages.ca/esac) • Federation of Ontario Naturalists (www.ontarionature.org) • Geological Association of Canada (www.gac.ca) • Geomatics Industry Association of Canada (www.giac.ca) • International Association for Impact Assessment (www.iaia.org) • International Association of Hydrogeologists, Canadian National Chapter

(www.iah.ca) • North American Association for Environmental Education (eelink.net) • Ontario Association for Geographic and Environmental Education

(www.oagee.org) • Ontario Association for Impact Assessment (www.oaia.on.ca) • Ontario Association of Architects (www.oaa.on.ca) • Ontario Association of Landscape Architects (www.oala.on.ca) • Ontario Environmental Industry Association (www.oneia.ca) • Ontario Forestry Association (www.oforest.on.ca) • Ontario Groundwater Association (www.ogwa.ca) • Ontario Horticultural Association (www.gardenontario.org) • Landscape Ontario Horticultural Trades Association

(www.landscapeontario.com) • Ontario Municipal Water Association (www.omwa.org) • Ontario Professional Foresters Association (www.opfa.ca) • Ontario Professional Planners Institute (www.ontarioplanners.on.ca) • Ontario Society for Environmental Education (www.osee.org) • Ontario Society for Environmental Management (osem.on.ca)

• Ontario Waste Management Association (www.owma.org) • Ontario Water Works Association (www.owwa.com) • Professional Engineers Ontario (www.peo.on.ca) • Toronto Field Naturalists (www.torontofieldnaturalists.org) • Water Environment Association Ontario (www.weao.org) • Water Environment Federation (www.wef.org) • World Energy Efficiency Association (www.weea.org)

Belonging to relevant associations demonstrates that you are committed, aware of current trends, and take your work seriously. However, becoming a member of associations often involves meeting numerous requirements and can take a great deal of time and effort. While you are exploring these options, it is important to learn the local regulations that apply to your specialization or area of interest, and their social, legal, economic, and ecological impacts. Employers often seek candidates who are knowledgeable of this legislation because knowledgeable candidates require less training time and cost. Documentation of relevant regulations, policies, laws and acts can often be found on the appropriate association’s website or on government websites – see www.gc.ca for Government of Canada Departments and www.gov.on.ca for Government of Ontario Ministries. A common barrier for Newcomers to Canada is that employers won’t always know how your education and experience in your home country measures up in Canada. You can get your degree certified by the World Education Service (http://www.wes.org/ca/). The WES evaluation is a document that converts educational credentials from any country in the world into their Canadian equivalents by describing each certificate, diploma or degree you have earned and stating its academic equivalency in Canada. If you are planning on going back to university have your Canadian university do an assessment of your documents.

3.4 The Resume and Cover Letter Employers are looking for someone who can promote themselves and the skills that they have. You have to be able to market yourself to an employer in a way that allows them to easily see that you have the skills, attitude, temperament and interest that will make you successful in their organization. Two important tools for marketing yourself are your resume and cover letter. A resume is a short description of your work and volunteer experience, and educational background. The focus should be on highlighting your accomplishments and successes, not just your previous job duties. Generally a resume is 1-2 pages in length. The prospective employer should see that you are a skilled and capable candidate without being overwhelmed with unnecessary information. It should also include your name, address, telephone or fax number, and e-mail address. It should not include any reference to your age, nationality, religion or marital status.

A resume is usually accompanied by a cover letter. The letter should briefly explain why you are sending a resume, why you are the best candidate for the job, and should make clear to the employer that you are a good fit with the job posting. Establish a clear match between you and

the job requirements. The cover letter should show your skills and experience, how they are suited to the qualifications the employer is asking for, and your commitment to the environment and belief in the work of the organization. Your cover letter should be broken up into four main parts:

1. A brief sentence where you write which job you are applying for 2. A brief paragraph where you write about your interest and excitement about the job (call

it an “opportunity”), and why it is important to you 3. A longer paragraph where you write about your work experience and show how it is

relevant to the job you are applying for 4. A final sentence where you thank them for the opportunity and that you “look

forward to hearing from them to discuss this position in greater detail”

Your resume and cover letter are very important, as they often create the employer’s first impression of you. Everything matters, including spelling and formatting. The cover letter should be interesting enough for the employer so that they read your resume. Your resume should be interesting enough so that they employer decides to offer you an interview.

For these reasons, it usually takes time and effort to create a resume and a cover letter that work. There are many workshops or short programs available to help you with your resume and cover letters. Even if you are writing a resume yourself - always ask someone to critique it. Your resume will require continuous work. You will find yourself editing and adjusting it for every job you apply for.

For more information and samples of effective cover letters and resumes please refer to www.settlement.org under the Employment section.

3.5 Where to Find Environmental Employers In Ontario there are many organizations of all sizes and all types (for-profit, non-profit, and governmental) working on environmental issues. It is a good idea to look into opportunities at government agencies at the federal, provincial, regional, and municipal levels. Nationally the environment is managed by Environment Canada (www.ec.gc.ca) and Natural Resources Canada (www.nrcan.gc.ca). However, other Departments such as Transportation, Heritage, and Fisheries & Oceans also play a role. For some starting contacts please refer to Appendix 1 – Federal Government Offices – Environment Related. There is a similar structure of environmental management in place provincially, but the we call these departments Ministries. For example, there is the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (www.mnr.gov.on.ca/MNR/) and the Ontario Ministry of Environment (www.ene.gov.on.ca/). For some starting contacts at the provincial level, please refer to Appendix 2 – Ontario Government Offices – Environment Related. Ontario government jobs are posted at www.gojobs.gov.on.ca. Regionally and at the local municipal level, most environmental opportunities are found in the Planning, Works (Infrastructure and Transportation), or Parks & Recreation

Departments. For some starting contacts at the municipal level, please refer to Appendix 3 - Greater Toronto Area Municipal Offices – Environmental Related. Conservation Authorities are also major environmental employers throughout Ontario. TRCA posts its employment opportunities at http://www.trca.on.ca/corporate_info/employment_opportunities/ and its volunteer opportunities at http://www.trca.on.ca/events/volunteer/default.asp?load=jobboard. For a list of Conservation Authorities please see Appendix 4 – Conservation Authorities. The nonprofit sector also employs many environmental practitioners, so it is wise to be familiar with this sector too. An excellent resource for finding nonprofit, non-government environmental organizations throughout Ontario is the Ontario Environment Network’s Environmental Directory, found at www.oen.ca/dir/. For other contacts in the nonprofit sector, please refer to Appendix 5 - Nonprofit Organizations – Environmental Related. There are also environmental opportunities in the private sector. For some starting contacts in the private sector, please refer to Appendix 6 - Canadian (mostly Greater Toronto Area) Environmental Consulting, Engineering, and Planning Firms. Other resources like Scott’s Directory (www.scottsinfo.com) or “Who is Hiring” can help you to create a list of potential employers. Industry Canada has a list employers by sector at www.strategis.gc.ca. 3.6 On-line Environmental Employment Resources: There are also many on-line resources to help you find employment in the environmental and sustainable development fields. Below, you will find a list of websites and listservs designed to help you locate environmental opportunities, paid and volunteer:
