Hi All,
My job title stated in my contract used to be “Project Manager – Wind Energy”. I am looking for the correct NOC code. While my bachelor’s degree is in mechanical engineering, I am not sure “2132 Mechanical engineers” applies to my duties.
My letter of reference list the following duties:
All of these duties are formulated very vaguely, and don’t really match the main duties described for mechanical engineers.
I found that NOC “4161 Natural and applied science policy researchers, consultants and program officers” includes the example title “wind energy analyst” which is close to what I did but not an exact match. However, the website only lists main duties for “some” occupations in this unit group, and none of the duties of a wind energy analyst are mentioned. The range of jobs included in this NOC is very broad. The NOC code includes, e.g.: ergonomics specialist, fisheries analyst, technology transfer officer, transportation safety analyst… and wind energy analyst. Does my job fit in there, too?
Which NOC should I choose? Any advice?
Thanks!
(p.s. sorry for the repost in this section, I wasn't sure where to post)
