Hi all,
I'm a newbie here. I am looking to start my application for the CEC program in a couple weeks.I have couple questions hope i can get some help from here.
1. I am working at a staffing and recruiting company. When I first started here, I was hired as an intern for 3 months. My job title is Executive Assistant/Account Manager (EA/AC). It's a full time job and i got paid $400 per month. I wasn't on payroll fyi. Everyone at my company was first hired as an intern and we're all independent consultant as they call it there, which mean we send the company invoice every 2 weeks to get pay. It's like self employed but i had to be at the office 40hr/week. After the 3 months, I was hired as full time EA/AC - employee on payroll.
So i'm wondering if my 3 months as intern there would count toward the 12 months of work experience.
2. I'm having some difficult time determining my job NOC. As you can see, my job is a mixed of EA and AC. So i'm not sure which one to apply under. I did some research on the hrdc website but couldn't get any job title that has the closest match to my job. Basically, things i do at work are:
• Assist the CEO and President in all possible works: conduct market research and handle requests for information
• Support various internal business functions: Finance, Sales and Marketing
• International Expansion and Operations: registering company in foreign countries, tax registration, human resource and labor rules research, etc.
• Assist managing major account: manage and maintain employee relations with staffs across North America and the Caribbean; serve as interface between these employees and the company and our client, identify and solve problems (if any)
I think in general, job description on the hrdc is very standard. But in reality, same job title might not do the same tasks depends on different company and their service in nature/structure. I am very confused.
Can some one help?
Thank you. Greatly appreciated
