What is CNAW?

The Core Neighbourhoods at Work Program (CNAW) has supported the employment and training needs of Saskatoon’s core neighbourhood residents since 2001. Each year, we help more than 1500 individuals pursue their employment goals. Our front-line team includes a resource room coordinator, a workshop facilitator, four employment coordinators who work one-on-one with job-seekers, and a staff member who directly supports employers.

We view local employers as strategic partners in our community and we want to see your business thrive. Let us use our experience to help you hire successfully from the community around you at no cost to you!

“Quint did a great job organizing all of the candidates so that our recruiting process was streamlined. As a result, we were able to interview 84 applicants in 4 hours and from that offered positions to 45 great candidates for our seasonal workforce.”

– City of Saskatoon (2018)

“You and your team did a great job organizing the event today. I would say with confidence it was one of the best career fairs I have attended. Good job.” 

– Wilton Angus from the Graham team (2020)
