Hi All,

Guys need your help.

I am planning to submitt my application under 2174 NOC. I am a Java Developer Bcakend only .My question is : Do we need to have all the roles/responsibilities mention in 2174 NOC ?
As its heading says : Computer Programmers and Interactive Media Developers.
I have no experience in interactive media like Angular,React Js


So shall I go for 2173 or 2174?

Please help me on this.

Thanks in advance.

What you're looking for is a good match of job duties/responsibilities as opposed to the title

You have to look at your actual reference letter from employer and compare it with which NOC code duties match best

my reference letter doesnot mention anything like interactive media or UI. Apart from that coding only matches in NOC 2174 .

and in NOC 2173 coding matches.

I dont know what to opt for.
As 2174 has high job requirement shall I go for 2174 or as i am not having any exp in UI shall I go for 2173.

Again, forget about the titles
You should ideally have a 60-70% match with the job duties (bullet points) of any NOC code. Just the word 'coding' isn't sufficient

Make sure reference letters for every employment you mention include ALL the details that IRCC requires since this is probably the #1 reason for rejection

'Full time' is enough, but make sure job duties and salary is clearly defined. They don't care about the titles apparently

Basically, you have to find a way... But there are alternatives too
There's plenty of threads on this forum about it... Feel free to search around a bit
There's useful youtube videos on this subject as well
I'll let others chime in since I personally didn't hit this obstacle..

I got my reference letter after ITA and had to work backwards with my employer on updating the job duties mentioned
