Do you have an existing employee working for you on an Open Work Permit with no clear path to Permanent Residence (PR)? Are you curious to know what you can do to help?

We help increase the competitiveness of your employees by applying for a PR (Permanent Residence) - supporting LMIA.

The PR-supporting LMIA will make a job offer "valid" within the Express Entry points ranking system, awarding your employee an additional 50-200 points!

And there's another great bonus: you don't need to pay any government fees!

It’s no secret that Canadian Immigration takes time. For many employers, the lengthy processing times of international recruitment can be a deterring factor.
From our 15 years of experience, we have learned that if you are in a labor crunch now, odds are you will be in 6- 10 months from now.
So, our first advice is to get started now!
Think strategically. If you need more workers now, odds are you still will need them six months from now. If you plan to expand your business next year - now is the time to act.
When you recruit strategically and with the right recruiting agency, you’ll make the right choices: you will have time to review resumes, schedule interviews, and decide what's right for your business.
From our experience, strategic recruiting also results in shorter recruiting times. Planning is thorough, and both your recruitment agency and the recruiters on the ground understand your needs better, so they find the right people for your business faster.
Want to learn more about acheiving international recruitment faster and better? We provide free advice, no strings attached, to help you get the best temporary foreign workers for your business.

-Attract talented veterinarians from various countries who are eager to contribute to Alberta's veterinary landscape.
