Enquiry | Medical science liaison Noc OR pharmacist Noc

[K.medicalaffairs]

I have a bachelor degree and I have evaluated my degree by PEBC & I have already received my ECA report that stated:
"Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy degree" - 5 years length
i.e. I will get the score of the professional degree not a normal bachelor degree.


Here are my 2 questions:
1. I am a senior medical science liaison in a multinational pharmaceutical company since 2015. (previously worked as Medical sales rep. for 2 years)
What is the most appropriate NOC, Is it 3131 or 4165? (Job duties are mentioned by the end of the thread)

2. If I will have filled my EE profile with NOC 4165, will my "Professional degree needed to practice in a licensed profession" degree points be lost and considered as Bachelor degree not a professional degree?

Thank you for your reply, highly appreciated. Does it works? And is it on demand by any PNP stream?
but what about my first question, Does pharmacy or medicine degree is counted as professional degree which is equivalent to master dgree points.

Hi! I have the same problem as your second question. I have a bachelor's degree in pharmacy but I am working in a pharmaceutical company so therefore I will be using a different NOC (not the pharmacist one). Will I still be able to get the 135 points for professional degree or just 112 points for bachelor's degree since I am not practicing pharmacy.
