Full-time work experience while studying

I am claiming points in my Express Entry profile for my 1 year and 8 months of work experience in skill level A.

However, I acquired this work experience while studying long distance and working 45h per week. My employer/job requirements are usually a bachelor's degree. I am worried that my work experience will not be considered as valid because
1. I got this job before having my degree (despite the requirements) &
2. Of the hours worked while studying. I have read that full-time work while studying should be max 30h per week

Do you know if these would be a problem?
