how to prepare docs for working experience

[legbird]

Hi,

I want to ask when prepare documents for working experience, which kind of documents is required? Offer letter, or proof of employment, or working contract?

Besides, does anyone know how many years of working experience can be counted according to my background listed as below:

2008~2013: working as a software engineer (5 years);
2013~2015: pursuing the master's degree, didn't work;
2015~current: working as a data scientist (2.5 years).

According to my understanding for EE, working experience must be in a certain field for certain years. Although I am always working in the IT field, but my concentration has been changed from software development to big data, I wonder how should I count the year of working experience in such case?

Thanks in advance.

I would say you have 7.5 years of professional work experience

Thanks for the reply. But how should I choose the NOC code if I changed my concentration of working field?

For example, software engineer belongs to NOC "2173 Software engineers and designers", but how about data scientist role?

You would have to decide which NOC you want to be in Canada, then correlate your experience to that box.

not all your jobs have to have the same NOC..............

So I should either pick software engineer or data scientist, and then choose NOC? not able to use both?

i meant the requirement isn't that your entire career be in the same NOC.
if you need the points you can list both with the corresponding NOC for each

Thanks. When calculate the score for working experience, both NOC will be accounted?
