    A link to your profile is automatically created every time you apply for a position, so you only have to fill it out once. However, you may update your profile at any time.

  4. Should I list all of my skills in the application form?

    The more skills you specify, the greater the chance that your application will be selected by our recruitment team. Also, please rank your skills in order of greatest experience.

  5. How can I follow up on my application for a position?

    Please note that each CGI geographic region manages its own career postings. As a result, we do not centrally maintain and have access to application information. Also, please note that only candidates selected for interviews are contacted. Resumes, however, are kept for a certain period of time and considered for future career openings.

    Note: CGI has been informed that fraudulent employment advertisements and offers are being sent under the company names of CGI. To learn more about these and how to report them, visit the Fraudulent employment offers page.

  6. What will happen after I submit my application for a specific position?

    Please allow some time for recruiters to review your application. Our team of recruiters will assess the applications received and will contact those applicants who are chosen for an interview. If you are not contacted for a specific position for which you applied, all resumes submitted through our online application tool are kept for future consideration.

  1. Do I need to apply for a position to create a profile?

    No, you do not need to apply for a specific position before creating a profile. Access the My profile page, and follow the steps for creating or updating your profile. Your information will be saved in the system, and, as recruiters perform searches on the database, they will immediately have access to your profile. Keep your profile up to date to ensure your skills are appropriately matched to new CGI opportunities.

  2. How can I upload my resume?

    You can upload your resume or other documents when you create a new profile or via the My document page upon logging in. There are three ways to upload documents:

    1. Using local files from your own operating system

    3. Using Google Drive online storage

    When uploading documents, you need to define the type of document that you are uploading.

  3. I created my profile but haven't received my password. What are the potential causes?

    Check to see if any of the following reasons apply:

    1. Your email address was entered incorrectly
    2. The password email was sent to your junk mail folder
    3. Your email server was down at the time the password was emailed
    4. Your email inbox is full and could not receive the email

    If you are unable to retrieve the password email, please contact our help desk at candidate.njoynhelp@cgi.com to receive your password.

  4. I can’t log onto my profile. I receive an invalid password or authorized users only message. What do I do?
    1. Click on Forgot your password? above the log-in button. Enter your email address in the field provided, and click Send. An email containing the reset password link will be sent automatically to the email address provided.
    2. If you are still experiencing problems with the new password, type in the password rather than cutting and pasting it from the email that was sent to you. Sometimes an extra space can be copied by mistake, which will render your password invalid.
