If working for a company with Canadian offices then that May be the best option. However, doesn’t mean his CEC score will be high enough.
Hear you, though that low CEC score was just a one time thing. In any case, EE is not predictable. At the end of the day, it is just responding to demand-supply dynamics and yonger folks have better odds.A 470+ FSW is not even qualified while 75 CECs get ITA. Fantastic system!
