Hi,

I was wondering what the 1 year work experience means in the express entry program...

Should it be in the same company?

Or Can I have two different job (totally different job.. with different NOC code) for each 6 months.. and apply for EE when I accumulated for 1 year experience from 2 jobs....

Lets say that I work as A for 6 months and quit it to start another job B.. and these jobs are totally different and not related... (but both are NOC B)


Can anyone knows about this issue?

Thanks!

Thanks for the information!!

I have one more question.. ( it might be very basic one..)

How do I know that I will be applying through CEC or FSWP?

For example,, I am an IEN (Internationally educated nurse) and have skilled work experience before I moved to Canada..

Now, I am looking for a job that is not related to healthcare, but still in NOC B level..

In this case,, will my application be considered as CEC or FSWP?



+ Can my experience be accepted even though the company/business is newly made???? I might be hired for a position in a newly established business,, but I read internet articles saying that business has to be more than 1 year to be accepted by CIC....
