I talked to my HR cum branch manager about reference letter and she was cool enough to agree to the way I wanted it. But still there is a confusion that was created while we discussed the things to include in it. Here is the problem -

I worked as Web Developer(always) & Designer(sometimes) and I told her to mention these two as my job duties. And mention Software Engineer as my designation. She told me that she cannot mention my designation as Software Engineer as for that a person should have knowledge of Java and should also have worked on some projects of Java. I neither have much knowledge not I ever worked on this language.
So what should I mention in my designation part? Any web developer Pls.?
Or should I get mentioned my job title rather than designation? I'm too confused about this.

Here is the sample of reference letter -
Designation - software engineer

Job duties - 1. Web developer
2. Web Designer

joined on - dd/mm/yyyy
resigned - dd/mm/yyyy

Annual salary - 00000.00 INR
last salary - 00000.00 INR

If this is for express entry then you should look out for the NOC code that you have or will put on your profile. If you are a web developer then you should apply under 2175 Web designers and developer and match your duties accordingly(this way you don't need to mention your software designation position). Checkout this link for more details on your job duties http://noc.esdc.gc.ca/English/noc/Profile.aspx?val=2&val1=2175&ver=16

Web Developer designation is fine as long as you declare your job under NOC 2175 and to be more clear designation is a must while showing the proof of Employment history

thank you. So I must include designation as well as job duties/roles and responsibilities.
