Harun Rashid's journey from Bangladesh to Canada in 2000, armed with a finance degree, faced hurdles. After graduating in 2001 with a master’s in finance at Queens University, job scarcity loomed due to his status as an international student. The only job offer he received was cancelled due to the economic crisis that year. Family support and a part-time job were critical to surviving those 5 years until the Permanent Residency came out in 2006, yet the lack of immigrant status stalled his career. In 2007, a pivotal job at CIBC as a teller ignited his climb. Today, as a revered Financial Advisor, Harun's resilience shines. Beyond finance, he co-owns a thriving restaurant since 2015, a testament to his unwavering dedication. He stands as a symbol of perseverance—a devoted family man and a vibrant part of Kingston's community.
