Hello.

I have around 7 years of experience in Software Engineering where I served as Software Engineer, Team Lead, Engineering Manager or even Engineering Director.

I'm not sure which NOC code to choose. Should I go with "0213 Computer and information systems managers" (Level 0) or "2173 Software engineers and designers" (Level A)

NOTE:
  • I have both Bachelor and Masters in Software. In addition, I also have an MBA
  • Almost half of my experience is in software managerial positions

seems like 0213 is your code, because of "Almost half of my experience is in software managerial positions" and
Employment requirements

  • A bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, business administration, commerce or engineering is usually required.
  • Several years of experience in systems analysis, data administration, software engineering, network design or computer programming, including supervisory experience, are required.


secondly, it depends on, can you get a reference letter mentioning the duties related to that NOC, if yes you can confidently select any NOC code.

Thanks for the response. They say that 0 NOCs get higher priority and attention. Is this true?
