Hi, all.
I just graduate from an university in Australia with a degree in computer science and I am now in Vancouver to visit my mum who works here. I have a multi entry visitor visa for 6 month. Since I don't have many friends here, I would like to find a volunteer work in Vancouver and gain some experience so after I go back, I can add something in my resume.
My question is if I just want to find a volunteer job without payment(related to my degree), do I need to change my visa to work permit?
coz in Australia, if you don't recieve payment, you don't have to apply for a work permit, I am not sure if it is the case in Canada.
I try to seek the answer on the official website but there aren't many useful information there, so hope this is not a rare case.
Thank you for your answers
Best Regards
