Hi, very good idea to consider this before you accept. And unfortunately, I think you have good reason to be concerned. To me, the closest "fit" within the NOC system looks like 1434 (Skill Level C, not eligible).

I would suggest that you ask your prospective employer about what NOC code they would assign. If you think you can be open about your concerns, perhaps they would be wiling to modify the job description.

BTW - do you have the securities license? That may help...

YEs, I do have the Securities license. Does that help ?

yes, absolutely - that says "more than a clerk." Later, if you get the ITA, include a scan of that with your employment documents.

Not my field, but I would suggest looking at NOCs 1114, 1112, and your current 1113 - and again, talk to your prospective employer and see what they would suggest. You still have to be careful - "securities clerk" is under 1434...
