Step-by-Step Guides
Detailed walkthroughs for each type of listing on HOJO.
For students looking for off-campus accommodation
Finding Housing
Browse housing listings
Filter by neighbourhood, price range, number of rooms, and move-in date. Listings include apartments, rooms, and sublets near both SGW and Loyola campuses.
Read the listing carefully
Check the included utilities, lease length, and any listed conditions. If something is unclear, message the landlord directly through HOJO.
Visit the unit before committing
Always view the apartment in person. Never pay a deposit without seeing the unit first — this is a common rental scam.
Review your lease with HOJO
Before signing, bring your lease to HOJO (H-224) for a free review. We ensure your rights are protected under Québec tenancy law.
For students seeking part-time or full-time work
Finding a Job
Browse job listings
Search part-time jobs, internships, and contract roles posted by employers looking specifically for Concordia students. Filter by category, schedule, and location.
Apply through the listing
Contact the employer directly via HOJO's messaging system. Include a brief introduction and attach your resume as directed in the listing.
Know your rights before you start
Make sure you have a written agreement covering your rate of pay, hours, and role. Québec minimum wage laws apply to all jobs, regardless of immigration status.
Get support from HOJO
If you have questions about a job offer or encounter workplace issues, visit HOJO in H-224 or email hojo@csu.qc.ca for free, confidential advice.
