Liberals get more than 11,000 job applications
Canadians voted in droves for the Liberal Party and now they want to work for the new federal government.
On Friday night, the party put out a call on the web and social media looking to hire a diverse team of passionate and hard-working people.
Within 12 hours, more than 3,000 people had uploaded their resumes. By this afternoon, more than 11,000 had applied and most had also submitted detailed cover letters.
Liberal Party spokesman Olivier Duchesneau said so far the submissions are impressive. They include several Rhodes scholars and more than 1,500 applicants speak three or more languages.
"Mr. Trudeau has said his government will be the government of all Canadians. You know it's an example of how we want to do things. We're doing things differently, we want to be open and we want all Canadians to be engaged and participate," Duchesneau said.
