AMAZING NEWS!!! IEC POOLS OPEN MONDAY!!! 
International Experience Canada (IEC) pools for most countries open this upcoming
Monday, March 1, 2021.
The number of spots ranges from 25 to 10,500 depending on the country.
IEC is comprised of three streams – International Co-Op (Internship), Young Professionals, and Working Holiday.
The first two streams require a job offer from a Canadian employer, while Working Holiday does not require one.
International Experience Canada is a Canadian mobility program for young people from 18 to 35 years old.
Participants in the program receive an open work permit (no LMIA!!) valid for up to two years. With an open work permit, you can work for any employer in Canada!
Right now, Canadian travel restrictions only allow IEC applicants with a Job Offer and a Port of Entry Introduction Letter to enter Canada. However, this might change any time.
If you think you may qualify, it is important to enter the pool while the spots are still available.
If you need our help with that or want to ask us additional information, do get in touch! We have the experience and the expertise to bring you to Canada under International Experience Canada streams!
