Hi Seniors,

What does it mean "candidates in the pool will be prompted to promote themselves to employers" ? Do we have to call up the potential employers?? I think this going to be tough then than the usual program.

Any thoughts on this guys?

So there is no minimum points required to qualify?

Now it is competitive. There is no minimum.

Does anyone want's to start a SS so we can compare our grades?

 

[trini_ac]

The minimum to enter EE is to be eligible for FSW or CEC or skilled trades program.

 

[naticom]

If you want to get most extra score from skill transferability factors, you have to get 8/7/7/7 in IELTS.

In this game, LANGUAGE dominates if you do NOT have Canadian-experience or a job offer or nomination.

Now it is competitive. There is no minimum.

EE will not be easy, that's for sure.
Too bad we woke up too late with this year's application...well, a closed door opens another, right?

Good idea to have a SS for EE.

Until we see how we rank against others don't lose hope. It would be very hard for anyone to get close to 600 (ignoring nominations and job offers). We need a spreadsheet to get a better idea of average points until then don't panic
