Hi cecfile,
My understanding is that, For Skilled work experience, your work experience must be:
1. At least one year (1,560 hours total / 30 hours per week), continuous full-time or an equal amount in part-time,
2. Paid work (volunteer work, unpaid internships do not count),
3.
In the same job,
4. within the last 10 years, and
5. At skill type 0, or skill levels A or B of the 2011 National Occupational Classification (NOC).
So you need to be working continuously in the same job designation. So once the NOC description doesn't change you should be fine. You would need more than 4 months though. So at this time you wouldn't be qualified until you get to 12 months continuous experience in your designation.
Switching into a different company should be fine as long as its the same NOC that you plan to use for express entry.
Senior members or persons with similar experience please advise.
Hope this helps!
