    Working as a Software Engineer but confused about what noc code to use

    Hi, how did it go? Are you a software engineer in Canada or outside Canada? If you are in Canada, do you have a certificate or licensing? From what I know so far that having the word engineer in your job title can be problematic if you are not licensed if you are in Canada. I have a friend...

    What NOC code should I put for embedded software developer (no PEng)

    I have a friend who is in a similar situation. His title is Developer, yet he does DevOps Engineering work. NOC 21231 is considered regulated across Canada according to Job Bank, as seen here https://www.jobbank.gc.ca/marketreport/requirements/5485/ca What is really confusing is that if the...

    Primary NOC, Canadian Work Experience, and Foreign Work Experience

    Would it affect the decision if he applied under CEC? Also, a slight correction on his Canadian work experience, his job title is Developer, but his duties lean towards DevOps, which falls under NOC 21231...

    Primary NOC, Canadian Work Experience, and Foreign Work Experience

    My friend has 3+ years of foreign work experience as a software developer and 1+ year as a developer Canada, but with with duties that are close to DevOps engineer for the latter. He started working in Canada after he had earned his master's degree at a Canadian university. Speaking of which, he...

    Have 3 years and more foreign work experience but no pay stubs. My employer is willing to provide me with a reference letter. Would that be enough?

    Actually, being asked to provide additional docs seems to happen on a case-by-case basis. Some people have got their PR approved after providing their reference letters without any paytstubs. See this, for instance...

    Have 3 years and more foreign work experience but no pay stubs. My employer is willing to provide me with a reference letter. Would that be enough?

    Work experience from staffing agency - unsure about the start date

    Ok, so he says he most likely will only include the period when he is working with one of his employer's clients in both the Work History section and the Personal Section, and only include the free training period in the Personal History section, and explain the reason why in LOE. Does it sound...

He has worked with one of their clients for more than 1 year, but he is confused on what to input in...
