During the month of October, BC PNP extended invitations to a total of 903 candidates for provincial nomination across five separate draws. Similar trends are anticipated to persist throughout November.
These consecutive draws serve as a testament to British Columbia’s unwavering commitment to prioritizing the selection of skilled workers and international graduates equipped with the necessary skills, qualifications, and potential to thrive in the province’s dynamic economy.
