The PEI Expression of Interest process is designed to attract candidates who can help the province foster its economic development and meet its labour market needs. To be invited to apply to the PNP, applicants need to score well on certain important criteria, which increase their chances of being invited.
Language proficiency in either English or French is an important criterion, as it helps immigrants to immigrate to Canada, integrate into society and find a job in PEI. Education and its level, type, field and country of issuance play a crucial role during the selection process as well.
Moreover, the Prince Edward Island PNP evaluates work experience and skill sets and seeks to align them with the province's current labour market demands.
It means that some candidates can be prioritized depending on whether they meet strategic labour market demands or have good employment prospects, such as job offers or work experience in Canada.
