For Employers

Employers, we’ve got you covered

Educating employers is a key part of what Prospect does. We help employers discover new pools of skilled workers in demographics they may not have considered. By raising awareness, providing training, and engaging organizations through consulting services, we help employers create their optimal workforces.

Many of our employer partners, including Bank of Montreal, ATCO, Home Depot and others have won recognition for their efforts in diversifying their workplaces.

Prospect’s Employer services save organizations time and money.


Prospect offers workforce solutions to Alberta employers to help attract, recruit and retain top talent. Prospect staff get to know your company and provide services based on your unique requirements.

With offices in Calgary, Edmonton, Airdrie, Cochrane, and Strathmore, Prospect can get you local information, resources, or access to skilled job seekers in your area.

Here are a few of the employment services that Prospect offers to organizations, at no cost.
