Hello,

had a question around the work history to list in the express profile.

I have about 9 years of work experience as a software engineer, I worked in 3 different companies.
However I worked in the same company for the past 5.5 years. Since the points for "foreign experience" are the same for 3+ years of experience, I was considering to only list this last company in the Work History of the express profile, so that I would only have to get 1 job letter. Is this right?

Also, I stayed in the same company however I moved within different organizations in different cities and got promoted to more senior positions in the past year. Should I list each of my move with exact dates or is it fine just a single entry? If I list each entry, should I get a job letter from each manager or it's enough 1 for all?

Last question is about my wife that would be added as dependent, she has some work experience but since it doesn't add any points I was hoping to not add it so that I would not have to get any job letter in cases it was needed. This should be fine as well right?

Thanks in advance,
A*

You can use only that experience its fine. Rest of the experience can go to personal history.
If all those positions were in same NOC you can simply put one entry
Regarding your wife's scenario, that's perfectly OK too.
