Hello community,

I am currently trying to find out if I am eligible for Express Entry and I have a question regarding my work experience. I am at the question

"In the last 10 years, how many years of skilled work experience do you have? It must have been continuous, paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation. (required)"

I am not 100% sure what I have to answer because I'm confused about what "one occupation" means. I have experiences as
  • a farm supervisor (NOC 8252, skill level B),
  • an agricultural consultant (NOC 2123, skill level A), and as
  • a general farm worker (NOC 8431, skill level C).
My question now is if I can add all these different kind of experiences up or do I have to choose one of them and that's my "one occupation"?

Thank you for your help!

One occupation means one NOC, so you should use the longest ONE of your work experiences under any skilled (NOC 0, A, B) that you have had (either farm supervisor or agricultural consultant, depending on which one is longer). You cannot combine this two.
