Hello everyone,
Sorry for the long post.
I am all set and prepared to put my application file under CEC in coming few days. I was waiting for the reference letters from my manager but as I have received the letters now i would like to confirm my dicey employment situation and whether this letters will work or not.
I have been working in the same company but on contract for first 6 months and then was hired permanent. Just to clear up things following is my scenario.
Work experience in company A - 14 months.
First 6 months in company A - On contract was hired by Company B. An employment agency who placed me in company A. I received my pay stubs from Company B as i was being paid by this employment agency company B.
Rest of 8 months in company A - I was hired as permanent employee and my pay stubs are from company A as they pay me and i am no longer bound to Company B.
Now i have received the employment verification letter from Company B (Employment agency) which looks like a black and white print on a paper and no letter head. The letter states that i was employee of Company B as Programmer Analyst from start date of my employment and my last pay stub was on my end date of employment. The last pay stub was paid with hourly rate of $$/week. They provided me with another sheet of paper which has all my detailed pay information which i was paid weekly. This letter did not have duties and responsibilities as I was working in Company A on behalf of Company B.
Now i got 2 reference letters from my manager at Company A where i am working at present. One for the contract term and the other one for the period after i was hired permanent. Both the letters mention the same duties and responsibilities as it was the same position and same company that i was working for. Will this reference letters work or do i need to put something addition to my pay stubs and contracts letters.
