The Canadian Economics Employment Exchange (CEEE) will be on December 2 and 3 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Toronto at 21 Avenue Road, Toronto, Ontario, M5R 2G1. The hotel can be reached by phone at +1-416-964-0411.

The purpose of the CEEE is to facilitate the search of Canadian PhD candidates who are seeking employment and of the Canadian organizations who may be interested in hiring these candidates.

The CEEE meetings will begin on Friday, December 2nd, with interviews taking place approximately between 1:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. On Friday night, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM there will also be a reception for CEEE participants taking place in the Common Room of the Department of Economics (Max Gluskin House) of the University of Toronto: Max Gluskin House, Department of Economics, University of Toronto, 150 St. George Street, Toronto, ON, M5S 3G7. Map of the campus On Saturday, December 3rd, the interviews will continue from 9:00am to 6:00pm.

Most interviews are arranged prior to the CEEE. Both candidates and organizations should try to schedule their interviews before the CEEE by directly contacting each other. Information on the available candidates can be found on the web sites of Economics Departments. Links to the Economics Departments are available on this site.

HOTEL RESERVATIONS

For employers/interviewers Deluxe Four Seasons Executive Suites have been reserved at the Four Seasons Hotel. The suites have separate areas for sleeping and interviewing. Interviews will take place in hotel guest rooms, not meeting rooms. The cost of these rooms is $225 per night. Check-in time: 3pm. Check-out time: noon. Those wishing to interview on Friday morning need to make a reservation on Thursday night or arrange early check-in. We have also reserved a block of ordinary rooms at a slightly lower per-night rate ($210.00). Interviewers who are sending a team will therefore have the option of booking one suite for conducting interviews and one or more ordinary rooms.
