Mr. Rajeshkanna comes with 12 years of professional and international work experience from Royal Caribbean Cruise Line. He is prepared and ready to transfer his skills in this industry for his Canadian employer and his fellow co-workers. Mr. Rajeshkanna will have a clear pathway to Permanent Residency in Canada through several pathways in Express Entry and potentially an Alberta Nominee Program. If you are an employer hiring a foreign worker, it can provide benefits to your organization by adding internationally skilled and experienced workers.

Foreign Workers through this skills transfer program help to address labour shortages and staffing challenges often faced by Canadian employers in the hospitality industry.

ABOUT THE PROCESS

The Government of Canada believes that foreign workers can help employers meet their labour needs when Canadians and permanent residents are not available. As part of this process, the government supports higher-skilled foreign workers based on their potential to become economically established in Canada and to assist employers to meet their skilled labour shortages. Employers who wish to hire skilled foreign workers and support their permanent resident visa application can make a job offer under Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) Express Entry system. The job offer must meet the criteria of 1 of the listed economic immigration programs. These programs include:
