Clearly an LMIA Scam
From what I can gather, this is a website set up by someone OUTSIDE Canada to con people into paying for an LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment) job.
They likely get the immigrant to pay tens of thousands of dollars to get the job... which either does not exist, has ceased to exist or one that canada job bank.org has no authority to recruit for. Prove me wrong.
UPDATE: Their 716 area code is not even in Canada. This is a New York phone number even though they list an address in Kitchener Ontario. It lists a street, but no number. The postal code is that of one of many houses on Waterloo Street.
Reply from Canada Job Bank
Canada Job Bank does not request or accept any payment from job seekers for LMIA applications, recruitment, or job placement. If anyone asks you to pay for a job through our name, it is not us. All listings on our platform are free to apply for.
My reply, no Canada Job Bank does ask for money, the "agents" that you have working on your behalf do though. Are you actually on Waterloo Street in Kitchener? Why is there no HOUSE number? Why is your phone number in New York, not Canada?
You replied using the false message that is on your website.
You advertise jobs as LMIAs but they are fake. If I call numbers from your jobs, there is no answer. They also do not answer email. They are fake.
Another response from the Canada Job Bank but still no explanation of the glaring issues. I did not say that agents contacted me. I am an immigration consultant. A client came to me with a supposed LMIA via Canada Job Bank. It was not legitimate.
Why won't they answer the questions regarding their location?
In addition: Canada Job Bank has asked me to reveal my client's name and phone number. I could lose my licence for breaking my agreement of confidentiality. One more reason why they have no business being in the business.
Canada Job Bank. Please send me the names of legitimate companies that have hired people through your website. I'd like their company name, contact person, Canadian address (including proper street number, street name, suite number (if applicable), city, province, postal code, website AND a company email address. I'll contact them and if they are legitimate, I will reply here that it is so (without revealing their details).
In the meantime, here is "food for thought".
Reviews: " I'm primarily using Canada Job Bank to look for work because they have a lot of postings in my field and more are popping up every day. The only thing is I have not gotten a single reply from what has to be close to 100 applications I've submitted. Something I've noticed is that the job postings on the site don't match up with job postings on the actual websites of the companies that are advertising these jobs." on Redit

It's a fake website.
Only use the one from the official government. "gc.ca" ending. Not .org.

"Rogue website
This website is not the official Canadian Job Bank (whose URL ends gc.ca), and keeps highly outdated positions that it never had the authority to publish. Our business's ad for a position was copied from the official site three years ago, and we have been receiving applications ever since because of this website, despite the ad having been removed from the legitimate site within weeks.

The "positive" reviews?
Every one is posted by someone that has never before posted a review here.
Comments are clearly done by someone connected with the company. Two of them say the same thing "Useful site", two were written by someone struggling with English (sure it happens, I teach English as a second language - but one of them is by a person with an obviously English name). Two were posted on the same day - August 1st, 2025 -, after no positive reviews were posted for two years, and "coincidentally"... on the same day I first posted my review.
Note: The address was conveniently changed once I pointed out that the original one was "suspect". How is it that this HOUSE has a suite in it #305? The phone number has also changed to reflect southwestern Ontario. Reverse look-up says it's in Breslau Ontario while they state that it's in London, Ontario. The number belongs to Fibernetics Corporation according to Truecaller reverse search. (Just to be fair, this could be their "carrier" company - I will continue to search). More than one reverse search lists this as a landline is Breslau.
Additional interesting information: There actually is a Job Services company on Waterloo St. in LONDON. Likely this is where Canada Job Bank scammed part of its original information from.
