Hi all
I'm looking for as much advice as possible please regarding the correct NOC to choose for FSW ITA.
Bit of a strange one as my job title/industry/department overlaps between NOCs I've looked at and not clear what it could be and don't want to be rejected because of it. Degree: Business Information Technology,
Job Title: Portfolio Analyst, company in utilities industry, department was Information Systems.
At first by default I was thinking 2171 (IS Analyst & Consultant), however having read countless other threads there are suggestions of 1221 (admin officer) or even 1112 (finance analyst). Could someone please confirm what criteria decides the correct NOC, is it the industry, department, or generic duties only? The duties weren't specifically technical however as it was in the IS department with IS projects, my gut instinct leans towards 2171. Any opinions would greatly be appreciated please!
Duties as follows:
Thanks all in advance!
