One reason why we chose to join [this recruitment event] was the support from Economic Development Winnipeg. Going with the team eliminated all the logistics work for us, which was great.

Our international recruitment event experience was very good. Every step was guided by Economic Development Winnipeg. Whenever we had questions, EDW would work to find the answer for us. They also connected us with the right people to help us with any immigration issues. They were always there, answering any questions we had as well as any questions the applicants had.

I reached out to EDW's talent services team for assistance navigating through the immigration process upon hiring someone with a unique skillset outside of Canada. They were extremely helpful, promptly answered all of my questions, and connected me directly with the key government contacts working on my case. It was a gamechanger to connect with a real person instead of a 1-800 number. If you have any workforce related questions or pain points, I recommend reaching out to this team at EDW to see how they can help.
