Probably second to only SF in North America for the game industry, SFX for the film industry is also big here.

- hobolord 11y agowhat site(s) should I be using to look for jobs in Montreal in software? My background is in mechatronics but a ton of the embedded engineering jobs I've seen require some French language skills.
- john_fushi 11y agoIf you are not interested in learning French you'll have a hard time finding a job in Montreal.
- Apocryphon 11y agoIs that really accurate? I've heard that the tech sector in Montreal is actually pretty lenient about English, and there's ways startups get around bilingual regulations by mainly catering to American/Anglophone markets, which is a loophole they can use. Have seen a good amount of commentary saying that programmers in Montreal don't need to speak a lick of French for their jobs.
- john_fushi 11y agoI'm not saying it is impossible, however bilingualism is often required in Montreal. Also, once the startup gets to a certain size(I'm not sure if it is over 30 or 50 employees) they have additional restrictions imposed by the OQLF.
- hobolord 11y agoI'd love to improve my French, but would probably like to do it while working at a new job, not before a job
- john_fushi 11y agoIf you are in Quebec once, try to speak French even if you struggle. You'll see most people will go pretty far to help you. In any cases, feel free to message me in French if you need practice.
