Hi all, my wife is a registered pharmacist currently working in india and she worked as a pharma executive (no license) in dubai for 3 years.

We created express entry profile and in experience she mentioned she did pharmacy technician for 3 years in dubai because her job responsibilities matches with a technician.

My doubt is , because she doesn't have a license in dubai. Is it a pharmacy assistant or a pharmacy technician should we consider?
Her job responsibilities in her employment match the NOC, so what is her NOC then?

There hasn’t been a FSW draw for Express Entry since last December so no one (doesn’t matter the NOC) has not got an invitation.

Hello all. Just filling my EE profile and kinda confused. So I am a pharmacist and currently work as a pharmaceutical sales rep. In my country it legally requires you be a pharmacist to promote to doctors. Now I have about two years experience in traditional hospital and community pharmacy practice and two years as a sales rep. Though not yet sure I will practice as a pharmacist when I get to Canada what should be my Primary NOC. Any thing I should be wary off

Your primary NOC is the one that you have one year continuous skilled work experience in. You match your job responsibilities to the NOC so it doesn’t have to be a pharmacist.

Were you educated as a pharmacist? If so you should be applying as a pharmacist.
