Does anyone know of gov't "incentive" programs to hire students? I recall many moons ago in the corporate world that our company got 50% of the hourly rate back from the gov't for hiring a student?

I need to hire a web developer for a pet project of mine. The Canadian job bank isn't really much use because it's mainly for manual labour type positions.

Completely false, students with all types of qualifications check that site out. I know from experience being a student at one point and using that very site.

You can post summer job listings free at Working.com:

Depends on the job, but you could also try Craigslist.

I know of a program that pays for the student while they do their summer employment with a company. PLease PM if you want more information. I just need to know which area the employer is located.

I'm not an employer, I just need someone to do some web development work for me as a pet project.

At the college I went to you could contact there job services department and they would post the position on their website and the bulletin board in the hallway. There were usually 100+ job offers up at any given time.

I am a student, what kind of developing do u have in mind, I am excellent in HTML I am working on CSS and PHP, i know a little bit on both, but not enough to make things custom.

Where are you located? I think canada.com has a sub-site that has student jobs posted. Another idea is just to go to a local high school and talk to the guidance office.
