Practical immigration guide

The main goals of the guide are to gather essential information in a single document, to support your efforts to integrate the individuals you recruit and to identify organizations and institutions that will facilitate the integration process. You'll also find testimonials by other business leaders who, like you, decided to recruit workers outside the Quebec City region.

Recruitment missions

Between 2010 and 2014, it is estimated that 80,000 positions will have to be filled in the Quebec City region. Since the birth rate and net migration are insufficient to meet this demand, it is estimated that the working age population will begin to level off in 2014. In addition, 67% of companies operating in the region say that the search for qualified workers is the main challenge they will face in the coming years. As a result, the business community has rolled up its sleeves and joined forces on a recruitment program.
