Does CIC consider any job as Canadian Experience?

I'll take an 8 months course working 20hr/w while studying and, after that, getting the PGWP to continue working, now for 40hr/w.
Probably working on some simple jobs so, do these count as Canadian Experience?

Thanks folks!

No. Only jobs that are skill level A, B or 0 are counted as Canadian experience for the purposes of CEC and FSW. Additionally, work completely during your studies cannot be counted.

If one works enough in NOC C jobs its also counted as skilled work. But as he said it must be work prior to graduating.

Please provide documentation in support of that assertion, or did you just make it up?

Official website information : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/cec/apply-who.asp

Skilled work experience
To be considered for the Canadian Experience Class, you need to have Canadian skilled work experience within three years of applying. According to the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC), skilled work experience means:

Managerial jobs (NOC skill level 0)
Professional jobs (NOC skill type A)
Technical jobs and skilled trades (NOC skill type B)
Your experience must be at least 12 months of full-time (30 hours of paid work per week or more) or an equal amount in part-time hours.
