English Language Tests
An English Language test is a requirement of almost ALL Canadian immigration programs. The IELTS general Test is required explicitly for the immigration programs. British Council provide these tests in South Africa, and clients need to book and pay for their tests online. PREPARATION IS KEY for this test, as its results play a HUGE role in your eligibility and in your points scoring in the express entry pool. Do not go into this test unprepared.
Education Credential Assessments
An ECA (education credential assessment) or a Trade Certification is a requirement for the Immigration process. This is where you need to have your qualifications assessed in Canada, to ensure they are accepted, and equivalent to Canadian Qualifications. There are may ECA providers, but WES is the most prominent.
DIY Résumé Development and Optimization with REZI
One of the most difficult challenges of the immigration process is finding a job before your arrive. Not having the right tools in place to help you put your best foot forward and garner those much needed interviews or job offers, really leaves you behind the trend with the express entry pool growing week by week, meaning more and more people are looking for opportunities in Canada. You have to be better, you have to look better. The tools we provide below are modern, new age, cutting edge tools that empower you the applicant to take control of your resume and the job application process, which will ultimately yield the results you seek.
JOBSCAN Résumé Optimization & Job Search Tools
Many job seekers don’t get enough interviews even after applying for dozens of jobs. Why? Companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to search and filter resumes by keywords. Canada is a country that most certainly makes use of multiple different forms of ATS systems so having just one resume may not be the answer, as you need to be able to overcome the over 60 versions of ATS. This is why we have partnered with JOBSCAN, and why we think you you really consider using these tools to improve your strategies.
What is Jobscan?
Jobscan helps you optimize your resume for any job, highlighting the key experience and skills recruiters need to see.

What came first the chicken or the egg or in a travellers sense the bank account or the residential address? Smooth Migration was born out of the frustrations of a few serial travellers who came across the same issues again and again whilst trying to get settled in new countries around the globe.
Smooth Migration currently covers Canada, the USA and the UK, with further expansion into countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Europe and South America in progress.
These services are aimed at those who don’t have access to years of local credit history in their new destination and in most cases are offered by vendors who were once in the same situation themselves.
