Hi guys,

I will be applying under NOC 2171, I have a question regarding the work experience letter, the title in the letter should exactly match the NOC "Information Technology Consultant" or it can be "Applications Consultant" or "Systems Consultant"?

Thx
I applied for 2171 although my title "Information Technology Specialist" does not match the NOC, however my duties match very well with those under the NOC.

When CIC eventually reach my file then I'll find out ;)
 
Am i eligible to apply under FSW NOC 2173 ? :-\

The main duties listed in NOC 2173 match exactly with my overall work experience, however it also mentions about the need for
"bachelor's degree, usually in computer science, computer systems engineering, software engineering or mathematics or Completion of a college program in computer science is usually required." However my Bachelor's of Engineering (4 year) degree field of study is "Electrical and Electronics Engineering"

I have over 9 years of IT experience developing software applications. In my current employment, i play the role of a Software Architect and my main duties include, Technical Design, Requirement Analysis, Development, Integration, Deployment and Maintenance of Software Applications. I also lead a team of
software developers for projects.

This is clearly a 2172 case.
 
Hello Friends,

I have just checked the CIC site for filled cap and it shows that for 2173 it is 54 now. I believe that this is very old data. Can anyone please confirm that? I will get my assessment at the end of august. By looking at the current number, it seems like I will be able to make it. However, nothing can be said.

Can anyone please tell what if I send my application to CIC and by that time, cap reaches to its limit. Will CIC return my documents?

Thanks in advance for the reply.

If you send your credentials for WES now then you can get it done by late by late 15th Aug. Try to send your file before end of Aug and you will have good chances to be a part of gorgeous 1000.
