15-22086 - Immigration Service (15-22086)

Given NRC’s specialized research, it is often impossible to find qualified Canadians or Permanent Residents to fill our research positions. Because of this challenge, NRC often needs to recruit internationally. Employers must demonstrate numerous requirements to both ESDC and CIC when hiring foreign workers, and these requirements are continually evolving and have become increasingly detailed and complex. There are significant legal implications and it’s increasingly difficult to manage. As such, NRC is seeking an experienced immigration consulting firm to support the recruitment and retention of foreign workers. Foreign workers may be hired to work in any province across Canada. The service provider will, upon request, assist NRC in meeting its immigration related employer-responsibilities for term and continuing positions. Additionally, the service provider will, upon request, assist new hires and existing term and continuing employees in obtaining or extending their work permit and visa. When employees are appointed into continuing positions the service provider will assist the individual in applying for permanent residency. Note: NRC will only offer immigration services to the new hire or employee. Should that individual require additional assistance with spousal or dependent immigration support they are free to establish their own contract with the service provider. NRC will not offer employer or employee services for: • Supplementary workers (including students) • Short-term employees • Visitors • Contractors
