Employers
Despite the growing demands for a labour force, shortages in skilled and semi-skilled workers have become a reality. Traditional recruitment practices have fallen short by focusing on a shrinking Canadian workforce. The key is to look globally, not locally.
Globalization means increased competition.
GMS believes in looking outward by matching the needs of a changing market with an internationally experienced, willing, able, and ready workforce. Skilled immigrants can help Canadian companies do business with the world and bring international expertise.
FACT: Over 40% of immigrants arriving in Canada since 1990 has at least one university degree compared to the Canadian average of 22%.
