Questions regarding reference letter under Alberta Express Entry

[donald2374]

Hi,

I'm looking at the requirements of reference letter under Alberta Express Entry and there are some specifications that I'm not too sure about. On the checklist it says:

Your reference letter(s) must be on the company letterhead and must include:

• job title
• salary
• period of employment including start date and end date for each occupation performed
• hours of work per week
• main job duties you perform on a daily basis* (see note below)
• education required
• skills and knowledge necessary for duties
• work experience required
• employer contact information including business email address

What does the red highlights mean exactly? Does it literally mean I have to include education required for my current job? How can I include skills and knowledge necessary for duties? Aren't they kind of overlapped when explaining your job duties? What does work experience mean? Does that mean I have to include my previous work experience to show that I'm eligible for my current job?

They are not the requirements of federal Express Entry so I'm not sure what exactly they are looking for. I would appreciate if anyone can help with my questions.

Thank you.

So what I would do is get the employer to write in the reference letter something along the lines of:

"This position was offered to [X - being you] on the basis of having:

• Completed a relevant qualification: [X qualification /degree - if none, leave out]
• Demonstrated skills and knowledge to fulfil their main job duties by virtue of producing or establishing a relevant portfolio of prior works and consistently meeting set expectations in the current role. Some of these skills include [ABC e.g. coding / cleaning, cutting and preparing produce for meals / writing content to a high standard / reconciling bank statements daily etc.]
• A proven track record of [X years'] of relevant work experience which they have suitably established and demonstrated to our satisfaction during and after the interview process"

Not sure you need much more than that.

Hola,

Estoy viendo los requisitos de la carta de referencia en Alberta Express Entry y hay algunas especificaciones de las que no estoy muy seguro. En la lista de control dice:

Su(s) carta(s) de referencia deben estar en el membrete de la empresa y deben incluir:

• título profesional
• salario
• período de empleo, incluida la fecha de inicio y la fecha de finalización de cada ocupación realizada
• horas de trabajo por semana
• principales tareas laborales que realiza a diario* (consulte la nota a continuación)
• educación requerida
• habilidades y conocimientos necesarios para las funciones
• experiencia laboral requerida
• información de contacto del empleador, incluida la dirección de correo electrónico comercial

¿Qué significa exactamente lo resaltado en rojo? ¿Significa literalmente que tengo que incluir la educación requerida para mi trabajo actual? ¿Cómo puedo incluir las habilidades y conocimientos necesarios para las funciones? ¿No se superponen al explicar las funciones de su trabajo? ¿Qué significa experiencia laboral? ¿Eso significa que tengo que incluir mi experiencia laboral anterior para demostrar que soy elegible para mi trabajo actual?

No son los requisitos de la entrada rápida federal, por lo que no estoy seguro de qué es exactamente lo que están buscando. Agradecería si alguien puede ayudar con mis preguntas.

Gracias.
