New Brunswick International Recruitment Fair Looking to Hire Directly, Simplify PR Process

New Brunswick is organizing immigration events to attract skilled workers directly to the province. New Brunswick has multiple pathways for immigrants on top of the regular methods to immigrate to Canada. The international recruitment fair is scheduled for this month and can be accessed in person, as well as online.

Seeing as how Visa rejection rates in Canada are skyrocketing, the international recruitment fair in New Brunswick is a good opportunity for people looking to move and settle in Canada. The province is organizing these fairs to bring in more skilled workers and fill positions across various fields. New Brunswick offers NB Skilled Worker Stream, NB Express Entry Stream, NB Transport Truck Driver– NOC 7511, NB Business Immigration Stream, NB Strategic Initiative Stream for French-speaking immigrants, Atlantic Immigration Program, and New Private Career College Graduate Pilot Program.

The international recruitment fair will have New Brunswick employers to look for skilled workers globally. At the time of writing, positions for attending the fair in person have closed but virtual attendance is still available. Those interested will need to visit the official Immigration New Brunswick and click on ‘Upcoming International recruitment events.’ This page will show you the events for November 2022, both in person and virtual, and you can click on ‘Sign-up’ next to the appropriate one.

Here, you will see an ‘Apply Now’ option which will take you to the profile creation page. You will need to put in basic information like your name and email. Fill up the rest of the form and you’ll be signed up to attend the virtual fair. Here, you will get the opportunity to bag a job offer from a New Brunswick employer which will be the only major requirement the province has for offering permanent residence.

The New Brunswick Skilled Worker Stream is the most prominent way of getting PR. According to the official website, one needs to have a genuine offer of employment from a New Brunswick Employer, meet the program’s minimum eligibility requirements, and have full intent to live and work in the province on a permanent basis. It should be noted that the New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Program: Express Entry Stream has been closed since May 2022 and it is unclear when it will start back up.
