New Brunswick will hold two sessions to find workers

The province of New Brunswick has announced a job fair and information session to be held this October. Professionals from many sectors are welcome at the events. This is a great chance to find a job in New Brunswick and immigrate to the province.

Both events will take place in Mexico City. However, residents of all countries are allowed to participate if they have an eligible occupation and meet other requirements.

General requirements

Both events are only open to candidates who have at least one year of experience in a suitable occupation and a prepared Canadian-format CV.

Those who wish to take part must fill out an application form on the New Brunswick website. Provincial representatives will then review all applications and select the most suitable candidates. They will be sent an invitation to the event, along with the exact time and location.

If you have already taken the education credentials evaluation and passed a language test, this will greatly increase your chances of receiving an invitation. Having relatives in New Brunswick and not having relatives in other regions of Canada also increases your chances.

You may register for a job fair or information session with your spouse or partner regardless of their occupation.

Job fair for skilled trades

From October 15 to 17, a job fair will be held for candidates with skilled trades occupations. At the job fair, you can meet employers from the province, have an interview, and sign a work contract.

The candidate can then come to New Brunswick on a work visa and apply for permanent residency under any New Brunswick program, one of the federal programs, or the Atlantic Immigration Program.
