Three new job fairs in Canada

Update! Recruitment for job fairs for workers in the production and food industry is closed. The acceptance of applications for the fair for transport workers has opened.

This winter, the province of New Brunswick will host three online information sessions for a range of professions as well as their families. The region needs workers in forestry, manufacturing and food processing.

Immigration officers will explain the opportunities to move to the province, and local employers will be recruiting from among the session participants. Successful candidates will be able to sign a work contract with a New Brunswick company and apply for permanent residency.

What's next?

The New Brunswick Commission will review applications and contact candidates who are interested. They will be informed of the exact date and time of the information session. Only candidates selected by the Commission will be allowed to participate. Participants who are interested in the province or employers will then have the opportunity to immigrate to New Brunswick through one of the provincial programs or the Atlantic program.
