I'm applying under C.E.C.. I have one year of work experience which includes working as a biological activity technologist from Aug4th till oct29 of 2010 and as a Visiting Scholar from Sept 2011 to June 2012. I have already filled out the application and verified everything. However I have an issue with my work experience.
Firstly, I worked as a technologist from August4th to October 29th, I'm worried about whether it will be considered as 3 months of experience.
Also, I was appointed as a Visiting Scholar by my employers. However, I have never done any of the duties listed on the noc list. I have actually completed the requirements of a molecular biologist according to the NOC list. I could get a letter from my employer to specify that I worked as a molecular biologist. Would that be okay? I dont know if the government has my position in their records or I can write whatever matches my experiences well provided I get my employers to agree with it.
Finally, along with the noc issue, I was recently told by a lawyer that the amount I was paid was in the range of what a graduate research assistant generally gets, which is apparently low and the government checks on the average pay scale of the position to confirm whether you worked there on not. If I do register my experience as a molecular biologist, would they match my pay rate to what is expected for that position? Or that does not happen at all.
As I did get paid from a recognized company, I understood that I was being paid reasonably well for this position.
It will be great to hear back from you guys! I'm almost done and I hope I can be one of the january submission guys
OH yea and as I have not been out of Canada for more than six months consecutively ever since I turned 18, I don't need to get police certificates at all right? I'm thinking on putting a short letter instead explaining the same.
