We faced ongoing difficulties recruiting CNC Machinists and reached out to Nicole at Venture Kamloops for support to hire Temporary Foreign Workers (TFWs). Venture Kamloops expedited the process by providing a referral to the Category A, Global Talent Stream program. While hiring TFWs can seem daunting, Nicole made it effortless, guiding us through each step and promptly answering all our questions. We were approved to hire two TFWs far sooner than if had we independently applied- just a couple of weeks as opposed to several months! Don't hesitate to reach out to VK - especially if time is of the essence.
In March 2024, we welcomed Danilo and Noel, skilled CNC Machinists from the Philippines, to our team. Not only are Danilo & Noel extremely skilled Machinists, but they have also increased the overall professionalism in our shop and are an absolute joy to work alongside. We couldn't be happier with the outcome- thank you Nicole and Venture Kamloops!
