I plan to migrate to Canada. I am a chemist (NOC2112). Going to this website SKILLED WORKERS AND PROFESSIONALS: WHO CAN APPLY, I got stuck with this particular item which I pasted in blue

1. According to the eligibility criteria, your application is eligible for processing if:

•you have an offer of arranged employment, OR
•you are a foreign national who has been living legally in Canada for one year as a temporary foreign worker or an international student, OR
you are a skilled worker who has at least one year of experience* in one or more of the occupations listed here.

When I clicked "listed here" ( please see list which I copied and pasted below) I found out that NOC 2112 (chemist) is NOT included on the list. Does it mean that my application will not be processed ?
