The spread of scores shows how there are thousands of candidates sat just below the score required to achieve a coveted Invitation to Apply. A job offer, worth 50 or 200 points, would make a definitive difference to these candidates. Our dedicated in-house recruitment service, skilledworker.com<\/a>, can help candidates with all their job search needs.<\/p>\n

Express Entry is an immigration system implemented by Canadian immigration authorities (IRCC) on January 1, 2015 which manages skilled worker applications under Federal Economic programs. This includes the Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Skilled Trades Program the Canada Experience Class and certain parts of the Provincial Nominee Program.<\/p>\n

Stakeholders expect to see near 30 draws and up to 70,000 invitations issued in 2017, with majority of draws featuring CRS scores well below\u00a0450\u00a0to enable Canadian immigration authorities to meet targeted annual immigration levels for 2017.<\/p>\n
