Does education really matters.
I am doing software job but i have a electronics degree.
Mainly they are wary of people trying to 'up-skill' (out of NOC level C or D occupations) or avoid the six excluded NOC B occupations (e.g. food service supervisors).
Not an issue in your case - consider that skill type 2 (
Natural and applied sciences and related occupations - the one that includes all IT occupations) is all NOC B or higher, and none of the NOC B occupations are excluded.
Your education doesn't need to be in the exact field you work in. If you appear so under-qualified for your job (based upon factors like education, previous work experience, and salary) that you are likely not doing that job, then you may run into trouble, but it's a natural transition from electronic engineering to software development.
