HR Glossary

What is Express Entry (Canada)?

Canada's primary electronic immigration system for managing applications for permanent residency under three federal economic programs, ranking candidates on a points-based Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) and issuing Invitations to Apply (ITAs) through regular draws.

Why it matters in hiring

Express Entry (Canada) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
