Lyliane Tchatchoua (Radio Analyst)
I joined the Commission in
June 2006, and have never regretted my decision. With a degree in Political
Communication and Journalism, I was hired after passing the post-secondary
recruitment exams. As a member of the
policy-writing team I draft policies that balance the
interests of the different parties. As a young professional, my ideas are
always valued by my team.
Joëlle Bernier (Senior Analyst, Telecommunications)
I started working at the
CRTC while completing my university degree in Finance. I quickly realized
that the CRTC was an employer of choice among students: the work hours and
the workload were flexible to my school schedule, with a priority given to
school work, particularly during exam periods. The work the CRTC has to
offer is very interesting. Not only do I get a chance to work on different
files on a daily basis, but each day also brings new and rewarding
challenges.
Raj Shoan (Senior Advisor to the Chairman)
My employment with the CRTC has
been constantly evolving and never dull. From my exposure to
policy development to practising law with the Legal Directorate to my
current position as Senior Advisor to the Chairman, the CRTC has provided
me with opportunities for growth far surpassing what I could have found in
any other public or private organization. The Canadian broadcasting and
telecommunications industries are on the cusp of one of the most
interesting stages of their development in Canadian history. If you find
the prospect of experiencing that transition firsthand exciting, then the
CRTC is the place for you!
