Hello guys,
I am planning to apply under CEC using NOC 2174. I have been working as an entry level software developer for almost 1 year now. I recently scored overall 8.5 in IELTS General training.
My only concern is my annual salary. I have been working at $15 hourly rate for 35 hours per week. I didn't have a choice shifting jobs since I was a new graduate with no prior experience. When I checked minimum hourly rate for Software Developer online, it comes out to be about a minimum of $18 hourly.
Now I am worried. Do I stand a chance of getting accepted with my current wage? My job duties match exactly with NOC 2174 and my manager is all glad to help me with a perfect reference letter. It would be great if anyone else with similar experience can share their thoughts here.
Regards
