  6. Hello, please I’m currently in the express entry pool, and would like to be accepted to the EIT program. Please, I want to know if obtaining my BC EIT license qualifies me to be considered for the position? I’m currently in Nigeria but both my BEng and MEng degrees were obtained from China. Thank you.

    • Good morning Peter,

      You do not have to have BC EIT to apply, but you must obtain membership as an Engineer-in-Training/Geoscientist-in-Training with APEGBC within 30 days of your start date.

      Hope that this helps. Good luck!

  7. Hello,
    I’m just wondering if the third stage of your hiring process for the TELP program (interview process) has been initiated or not. The email said an in-person interview would be scheduled for successful candidates, do you think there is a chance to accommodate people that are out of the town during the interview period?
    Thanks

      If you can’t make it to the in person interview you will be offered an option for a Skype interview. Hope that this helps!

  12. Hello,

    For a long time, I am following the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure because I believe not many provincial governments inspires me as a place to work. I worked for another province and I want to move to BC because I think your government is doing a good job. Outside of BC, I graduated from Municipal/Civil Engineering Technology last April and I am studying Construction Management Bachelor degree, which has a co-op term next summer before graduation by April 2020. My questions are the following,
    *Where I could find co-op offers for students out of BC?
    *Do you have positions for students of Construction Management?
    *Is considered Construction Management Bachelor Degree as an Engineer to apply under the Engineer in training EIT?
    *If applying to the TELP, could I be considered as a co-op student at the beginning and take a break period of time in order to finish my degree?

    All in all thanks for everything and sorry for my long question.

    • The Technician Entry Level Program accepts applications from candidates who have graduated within the past 5 years – so it sounds like you should submit your application, along with a cover letter outlining your strong desire to work with our team long term, when the intake happens again in early January.

  18. Hello Fresh Graduates, BC Highway’s salary is the lowest among all governments in Canada. Most of the work have been outsourced to private sector, it is difficult to get good experience in this organization. However excellent work life balance because there is no work to do. They posted 4 showcases of EITs who stayed with them… but that is like 10% retention rate in the past decade. Most EITs cannot make the ends meet and left BC Highway.

    Try to find a job in private sector or other municipal governments first. Don’t waste your youth away.

    Reply
    • Hi there,
      Thanks for your comments, our apologies for the delay in this reply. We connected with our TELP/EIT folks to get some answers for you. Engineers-in-Training (EITs) get great work experience – they are paired with senior engineers who support them throughout their time in the program and they get to work on projects all over the province. They are supported throughout the process of applying for their P. Eng., and they have a permanent position at the end of the program. Not many other employers offer this level of support, variety of experience or guaranteed employment. EITs enjoy working here. In fact, the retention rate of EITs in the ministry in 2017 was 65% and the percentage of employees in the ministry who are under the age of 30 has increased from 5% in 2005 to 13% in 2017. The employee engagement score for our EITs is higher than the average scores both in the ministry and amongst our BC Public Service colleagues. Our TELP and EITs often become some of our strongest leaders and we firmly believe this annual intake program is one of the best ways to develop your career.

      • Hi Whao,

        Engineers in Training starting wage reflects the fact that when they are hired, they do not have their P. Eng. status. They are supported throughout the process of applying for their P. Eng., and they have a permanent position at the end of the program. Hope that this helps.

        Reply
        • Yes, $43,000 to start is an insult to engineering graduates. After 5 years it’s $65,000 still the lowest in canada for engineering professional. Maxed out at $80,000 after 10+ years. Average pay for a 10 year veteran is minimum $100K. let’s check city of vancouver and richmond first, they pay more and got more interesting projects.

          $43,000 to start… unionized engineers…definitely a first in Canada.

  23. I look forward to some of these new recruits taking part in the completion of the Kamloops to Alberta border 4 laning program. However they will be very close to retirement when that happens 🙁

    Reply
    • Hi there Nick, we thank you for your comments and can appreciate your frustration. As you know, the landscape that makes this part of the province so amazing can also reduce the footprint we have available for widening. Creating new space for highway (either by blasting or otherwise) is very costly and time consuming. We are also somewhat restricted by our current fiscal budget. Wherever possible, we seek federal funding to supplement some of the expenses involved in four-laning (as we recently announced with the Kicking Horse Canyon four-laning project). We can assure you that we recognize the importance of this corridor and continue to look for ways to improve it, big or small, however and whenever we can.

        • Hi Mike,

          Unsuccessful applicants will get formal notification and can contact the hiring manager for more information about how they were screened out. Usually this opportunity comes at the close of the competition (after the successful applicants have been chosen). Here’s a video about the process. Hope it helps. If you have any other questions – let us know. Good luck!

As they progressed through the competition, further assessments of their knowledge, skills, abilities were completed through written assignments, interviews and past work performance checks.

    • Hello again Jay,

      When you applied on the MYHR employment website for the TELP/EIT program, there was a privacy statement on the posting. This original notice did not meet the needs of the provincial Privacy Branch and so we were required to notify all candidates that we collect personal information during recruitment.

      Unfortunately, the initial email that went out was not clear to candidates and we received multiple responses asking to clarify their application. So we decided a clearer version needed to go out. You should have received a second email clarifying how we use the information collected during our recruitment process. If you have any further questions about the collection of personal information or how it is used during recruitment, please contact the Ministry of Citizens’ Services and Open Government, by mail at PO Box 9493 Stn Prov Govt, Victoria, BC., V8W 9N7, by telephone: (250) 356-1851 or by email: Privacy.Helpline@gov.bc.ca.

  48. Hi,

    I am a recent graduate of UVic, and have some professional experience as well. I applied for the TELP program about two weeks ago, to build my skills and prove myself in an entry-level program.

    I was just wondering, if you would be able to tell me, if selected, when we will start to hear back concerning our applications this year?

    Thanks.

  49. Hello,

    I noticed the application deadline extension for the TELP positions until January 29, 2016. Does this extension include the EIT positions as well? Thanks!

  50. Hello,

    I got my degree assessed with APEGBC and was granted an EIT status in 2013, however I got my Civil Engineering Undergraduate degree in 1999. Can I still apply to the LSO ENG 1- Engineer-In-Training Program?

    Thanks,

  51. Hello,

    I am in my last semester and will be graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Geography this April (2016). I also have a Liberal Arts Diploma, for which a graduation request has been submitted to my school. However, I am still waiting for this to be reflected in my official transcript. Am I eligible to apply for the TELP program?

    Thank you.

        I’ve submitted my application and sent my transcript. I didn’t really come across a questionnaire in the application process, other than asking the places I’d be willing to relocate to. Just want to make sure I’m not missing anything important!

  56. Hello,

    I was interested in whether the TELP program will be available to apply for in 2016?

    Also, I have a Bachelor of Planning and I had heard that in past years, the Ministry offers opportunities for planning students. I was curious as to whether the opportunities for planning students fall under the TELP program?

    Thank you for your assistance.

  57. Help! I came across the winter intake deadline of Feb.11,2015 today. I have been trying to send in an application, but it appears all of the sites have been disconnected. Would it be possible to submit an application via e-mail? I feel that my credentials and work experience would be an asset to the TELP program and would love to participate.

  59. To apply for the TELP program, I must send my transcript electronically. However, my university (KPU) will only allow a hard copy of my transcript to be mailed. Am I able to mail a hard copy of my transcript instead of emailing it? If so, what is the address? Thanks!

    • Hello Aaron,
      Unfortunately the program is for recent graduates only. We do however from time to time hire co-op students and encourage you to check back on those opportunities and, of course, we encourage you to apply to the TELP program when you have graduated. Thanks!
