Do you qualify for Express Entry?This focused strategy aims to identify and invite candidates with significant experience in the transport sector, including diverse roles such as commercial truck drivers, pilots, and aircraft assembly workers. By creating a dedicated category for transport occupations, Canada aims to facilitate the influx of the skilled talent needed to support this critical industry on a national scale.
Today’s draw is the first ‘Transport Occupations (2024-1)’ category issued in 2024 and the third within this category overall.
