Hello! I'm US citizen recently moved to Montreal and looking for a job

Hello!

My name is Edwin and I'm a Graphic Designer and Illustrator currently living in Montreal from Miami, FL USA. I moved here because I wanted to be with my Girlfriend (a Quebec Native and resident) and because after visiting here a few times, I wanted to give living here a shot. I am a US Citizen and I'm interested in finding a job and one that would be willing to put in the paperwork towards a Work Visa which would allow me to stay here for one year.

I didn't expect it to be easy and I didn't have much luck applying for a few months prior to moving here so I figured i'd have a better chance looking for work in the country for a few months. It's nearing to almost 2 months since i've been here and I currently haven't had much luck. I wanted to reach out to the community and see if anyone knows of any jobs or job boards they can recommend? I do speak french and I've been checking daily for new leads.

Any words of advice or help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
