A video has gone viral on the internet where a large number of possibly Indian students were seen lining up in front of a restaurant in Canada’s Brampton to appear for a job interview for the posts of waiter and server.
According to reports, 3,000 people, mostly students, appeared for the interview in the restaurant called Tandoori Flame in the Greater Toronto Area.
The video triggers concern over the job opportunities for international students who are seeking to study or work in Canada.
The video was shared by X page named Megh Updates with a caption that read: “Scary scenes from Canada as 3000 students (mostly Indian) line up for waiter & servant job after an advertisement by a new restaurant opening in Brampton. [sic.]”
“Massive unemployment in Trudeau’s Canada? Students leaving India for Canada with rosy dreams need serious introspection!” the post said.
The video triggered reactions in the comment section of the X page.
One user wrote: “That’s the truth and on the point. [sic.]”
Another netizen said: “Looks like you really lose your brain when you go to a western country!”
One netizen wrote in the comment section: “It’s alarming to see 3,000 students, mainly from India, lining up for waiter and servant jobs in Brampton. This reflects the harsh reality of unemployment in Trudeau’s Canada. Those leaving India for dreams need a serious reality check!”
Another said: “The problem is that they will accept any job there but feel shy doing the same job here in India. Of course working conditions and payments are far better than India in Canada. [sic.]”
In the viral video, one Sikh man, who was identified as Agamvir Singh, said he saw a large number of people standing in the queue for the interview after he arrived at the restaurant.
He was quoted as saying in the video: “I don’t believe there is scope for jobs here. It is really tough.”
Another woman said, “It’s like everyone is looking for a job, and no one is getting a job properly.”
