Federal Skilled Worker Program is using a new electronic application management system called Express Entry. While Express Entry makes the process of filling an online application very easy and accessible, it is not recommended to fill up your application online without thorough thinking and planning. There are numerous applicants who fail to represent themselves properly. If you would like to succeed in your application, make sure seek professional advice before accessing the Express Entry site. It is important how you represent yourself.
