The "Eligibility – Rural Community Immigration Pilot" episode outlines the requirements for both employers and international workers seeking to participate in the West Kootenay Rural Community Immigration Pilot (RCIP) in British Columbia. It details specific criteria for employers, including being in priority sectors, job offer requirements like full-time and indeterminate positions, and employer caps based on company size, with exceptions for healthcare and early childhood educators. For candidates, the episode specifies eligibility rules concerning work experience, language proficiency (based on TEER level), educational credentials (Canadian or foreign equivalent), and the necessity of proving current legal status in Canada if applicable, while also noting requirements for settlement funds for those not already working in Canada.
