WHAT IS DONE IN CANADA JOB FAIRS?

Just in case you're wondering, job fairs are recrutiment events which employers and recruiters meet with potential employees.

HR team members explain to potential employees all about current job openings, the application process and anything else regarding the organization.

And usually there is on the spot interview.

To boost your chances of getting a Canada job offer, you must be PR ready. Employers don't want to wait for too long before you process your needed documents (which can take up to 1 year if you're not PR ready)

Being PR ready means you must meet the eligibilty requirements and you must have your documents like ECA, IELTS, your educational credentials ready.

What Happens to those who get job offers in the New Brunswick Job Fair?

Those who get a job through will easily be able to immigrate through any of New brunswick immigration programs which offer Permanent Residnecy to applicants (and their family if they are also relocating)

The programs are

• The Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program (AIPP) • The New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Program: Express Entry Labour Market Stream (EELMS)
• The New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Program: Skilled Workers with Employer Support Stream (SWES)

All the programs are attractive if you can get a job offer. For example, the Atlantic Immigration requirements are as follows:

* IELTS of 5
* Educational requirement is from secondary school degree and above
* Low proof of funds requirement compared to other programs.
* Minimum of 1 year Job experience if you are applying from outside Canada

PS. If you're finding it tough getting a Canada job offer, different provinces in Canada organize job fairs to easily meet qualified candidates living outside Canada.
