Hope someone can rreassure me on this.

I have part-time work exp with inconsistent hours. When I calculated my average hours per week, I counted from the day I started (for example Wednesday) to the day on which the calculation was made (for example Monday).

Does cic count the number of weeks from a Monday to another Monday, regardless of the actual work commencement day or do they count them from the start day? And say I started on a Thursday and my calculation was done on a Monday, would that Monday count as an additional week or would the Thursday next?

This is not about having sufficient hours, I do. I just don't want to appear as misrepresenting anything to cic.

It's not the average that's taken into consideration. It's 30 hours a week for a year or it's part time equivalent for 2 years which equals one year. In some countries and professions, people end up working 60 hours a week. That doesn't mean they can show 6 months of work experience as equivalent of 1 year just because they completed the number of hours.

Yes I know that. So how else can someone who has inconsistent hours provide a weekly figure of working hours if it's not averaged??
