Information for Employers
When working with Aboriginal Futures we can always count on a career counselor to provide ongoing support to both employer and employee. This has proven to be a valuable service and has enabled us to increase employee retention.
About Us
We are your point of contact for Indigenous job seekers.
Many employers would like to hire Indigenous workers but do not know how to successfully engage with Calgary's Indigenous community.
We are a labour market intermediary. We help improve the flow of labour market information by acting as a broker between Indigenous job seekers and local employers looking for Indigenous employees.
Founded in 2000, we have a trusted relationship with the Indigenous population in Calgary and the surrounding area.

We may sound like a placement agency... but we aren't.
We work on both sides of the labor market, evaluating changing labour market needs while also assessing the skills and interests of job seekers.
Unlike placement agencies, we put considerable emphasis on placement supports and services that can encourage job retention.
Additionally, our services are free of charge.
How are we different?
Whereas other service providers may offer Indigenous employment assistance as one component of their services, we devote 100 percent of our services to help Indigenous individuals obtain meaningful employment.
We provide a comprehensive range of supports that can help increase employee retention, lower recruitment costs and reduce training expenses. We also offer a number of programs and funding options that can save you money.
