BorderlessHR, a global provider of HR tech solutions, has announced its Canada Engineering Launchpad program. This program tackles the challenge of relocating skilled remote tech talent who want to live in Canada, offering a simplified process for both companies and employees with the support of Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC).
This program empowers companies to relocate their software engineers and other tech professionals to Canada on a work visa, fostering closer collaboration within their teams and unlocking the potential of the Canadian talent ecosystem.
“We connect global businesses to global remote talent so it made sense for us to launch this initiative for top tech talents working remotely and looking to live in Canada”, said Paschal Amaechi, CEO of BorderlessHR.
Recognizing the complexities of immigration processes, BorderlessHR leverages its expertise to simplify the journey for both employers and employees. The Canada Engineering Launchpad program boasts significantly faster processing times compared to the standard work permit application route. Qualified candidates can expect approvals in as little as 10 business days.
