About Express Entry

If you are in the Express Entry pool, you can start your job search by creating a Job Match account with Job Bank. Once you come to Canada, you can continue using Job Bank to find a job.

A Job Match account with Job Bank is an easy, online tool to help match you with employers looking for workers with your skills. To create an account:

• go to the Job Match sign-in page
• click the “Sign up now!” button
• read the privacy notice and click “I agree”
• follow the instructions to create an account

You can also promote yourself to employers in other ways, such as using:

• recruiters or
• job boards

For a job offer to be valid in Express Entry (so you can get points for it), your employer will likely need an LMIA. There are some exceptions.

Getting into the pool doesnt mean that we will invite you to apply for permanent residence.

To be chosen from the pool you need to have one of the highest-ranking scores when we send out invitations. If you are invited, you can apply for permanent residence.

When you apply for permanent residence, you will also need to meet eligibility and admissibility requirements under Canadas immigration law.
