Dear all,

Should the education qualifications and work experience be related, - In express entry, how many years of work experience is asked and not related work experience.

for example a person with a bachelors degree or a diploma land in canada, studies for a management course and endsup as a cook or a worker in a hotel or a motel. Then in this situation can he claim points based on his work experience.

Or

for example a person with a bachelors degree or a diploma land in canada, studies for a culinary course and endsup as a retail assitant or a worker in a mart or a market. Then in this situation can he claim points based on his work experience.

Can we show work experience from two different occupations.? for example, a person working as an accountant ends up as a business analyst or a computer programmer after his studies in canada. So can he count both his foreign and canadian work experiences.

Thanks a lot for reading.

Education and work experience do not have to match. You can have different NOC codes, as long as they are all 0, A or B.
