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. Express Entry Draw #289 issued 975 Invitations to Apply (ITA) to candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 430. This score is the lowest among all those issued in this category to date.
The previous draw occurred on December 20, 2023. The inaugural round of invitations for individuals with experience in transport occupations, through category-based selection in Express Entry, was issued on September 20, 2023.
