Hello everyone! I am graduating soon and I was just looking at the PGWP application guide. On IRCC's website, it says that occupation data is not required while filling the forms but it seems to be mandatory. My University told me to just put in my University's name and say that you were a full-time student. Has anyone else done the same way? Also, I worked for a couple of days while transferring to my University. I finished my courses at one University on the 21st of December 2019 and then transferred to another University and courses started on the 6th of January 2020. I worked on a couple of days after the 21st of December. What can I do?

Yes. That’s how my immigration consultant told me to do it.
Your main occupation in Canada was full time student and the employer was the school you attended to.
