Hi everyone, my profile is a little confusing. I want to apply to Federal skilled worker program (Express Entry)

I know that we need one year experience to be eligible, i do have one year experience but in different jobs as explained under:

Technical support (NOC 2282, Skill level B) - 4MONTHS - May 2018 - Aug 2018
Information Technology Analyst (NOC 2171, Skill level A) - 8 MONTHS - Oct 2018 - Present

That makes one year experience and I also have a diploma from a college in Ontario

I was wondering if I can now submit my Express Entry profile - The NOC codes are different as mentioned above, and even the type are different - it is O and A.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

You are posting conflicting information. Was your work experience in Canada or not
CEC, yes it's fine
FSW, no
 
If you are applying under the FSW program then your profile would be ineligible.

Thank you for your response.

To clarify - YES, both work experiences are from within Canada.
Also, what makes it ineligible under FSW? and eligible for CEC ?
 
Hi, DelPiero07

How do I select the 'program' before submitting my profile? I do not see an option to select FSW or CEC while filling out EE profile.
You don't select. System automatically assigns for you.
For you it's going to be CEC if you apply this year

Sure, this helps. And, in my profile what should i list as Primary NOC? 2171 or 2282? My current employment (started in oct 2018) falls under 2171.
 
Doesn't matter you can use either. Primary NOC only applies to FSW

Thank you so much for all the info. So I should just fill out my profile the usual way (will indicate primary NOC as 2171), and submit it. The system will then automatically identify my profile to be eligible under CEC, yeah?
