CEC: Unrelated work experience: Should I include it?

[jake84]

Hey everybody

I'm getting ready to apply for CEC. I have a PGWP and already have a year working in a managerial position NOC 0114. I also have work experience from my home country NOC 1123. I was thinking of including just these two work experiences.

During my studies in Canada, I worked in several places (part-time jobs that do no add nor will give me any points). But I'm not sure whether that's something I should do. I think that by adding those unrelated work experiences, I'll be including info that it's not related, and it looks like a waste of time to me. Is there anyone on here that had a similar experience?

Thanks in advance.

You can add it to your personal history, they won't ask for documents for those positions then.

It is not qualifying work experience so it should not be included in your profile. Later, if you get the ITA and complete the eAPR, then you must include it in your personal history, as noted by csadangi - no documentation required.
