Job 1: 15th Sept 2011 to 13th July 2012
Job 2: 18th July 2012 to 27th April 2015

As mentioned above, I have first job for less than 1 year, so can my above experience is considered more than 3 years given I provide all letters?

Are both those jobs in the same NOC code?

CIC counts by the month, not the exact day so when you apply for PR you would put in September 2011 to July 2012 for Job 1 and July 2012 to April 2015 for Job 2.

So it will count as 3 years, 7 months. The few days off in July 2012 don't matter.

But I read somewhere that experience less than one year will not be considered. My first job experience is less than a year. Can you pls explain?
Yes, both jobs are in same NOC

The requirement if for at least one year experience in a single NOC code. It's not really about working for a single company, it's about the actual duties you completed. Since you have worked in the same NOC for more than 3 years, it will be fine.
