Canada's Top Employers for Young People is organized by the Canada's Top 100 Employers project. This special designation recognizes the employers that offer Canada's best workplaces and programs for young people just starting their careers.

Aside from flexible hours, health and wellness programs, subsidized gourmet healthy meals, an on-site kinesiologist, and a fitness center, young team members at Genetec benefit from many training and continuing education opportunities, including an apprenticeship program to help candidates without the right qualifications to gain the necessary experience and skillset on the job.

The company prides itself on its active internship program to help the next generation of talented individuals get a head start in their careers. Every year, Genetec offers over 400 software engineering, sales, and marketing intern positions with many leading to full-time employment.
