Hi everyone.
After following this blog from almost 1 month, I noticed that their are very few applicants from 0 category of NOC. I heard someone saying that CIC give preference to category A or B kind of NOC since the jobs under these categories are more specialised in nature. Actually my concern here is that my job duties fall under category 0122 and 1212. Among both, NOC 0122 is more relevant to me since my profile is branch operations head in bank and in NOC description the manager banking operations is mentioned in CIC website.

EE- Aug 2016
NOC 0122
CRS 475.
Awaiting ITA

It does not make a difference at all. Cant say where you read that, but it's not written anywhere on the CIC website.

O level occupation are just as much in demand as A and B. You will not receive lower preference for an O level job!

What is true is that a lot of people select O level NOCs without a good understanding of the job duties and responsibilities of supervisors, managers, Directors, etc. that are described in the NOC, often have poorly written job duties, and/or are "supervisors" or "managers" in name only.
