FSW Work Experience Requirement

[akkii26]

Currently, I am creating profile for Express entry and have to answer a few questions to verify my eligibility. I possess 4+ years of work experiences. I can say NOC is same for 4 years but i have worked under 2 different companies. I have doubt in filling answers for below question in eligibility assessment.

"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. "
Options are:

A) None

B) Less than One

C) One

D) Two to Three

E) Four to Five

F) Six or More

My work details are given below:

Job 1 - Nov 2013 - Jun 2016 (NOC-2171)
Job 2 - May 2018 - Present (NOC-2171)

In between my two jobs I completed my MBA degree (Jun 2016 - Mar 2018) and hence the gap in my employment. But Both my jobs are in the same NOC. Could you please help me understand which option can I select given my situation? Though, my combined work experience is more than 4 years, it is not continuous and I am confused what to select. Please help

Its per job. So if you worked in one job 2 years and then on contract for 1 you all say 2.
If both your jobs were continuous I'd answer 4.
In all cases no matter what you answer, the actual work experience will be calculated after you add your roles and the calendar dates of start and end

Hi,
Thank you for your reply.

Just to clarify both of my jobs were permanent and fall under the same NOC-2171.

Job 1 - Nov 2013 - Jun 2016 (NOC-2171)
Job 2 - May 2018 - Present (NOC-2171)

However as you can see, there is a gap of about 2 years between my two jobs. Can I select 4 in this case, even though my second job did not start right after I left my first Job.
Thanks!
