Full-Time Employment as a Student. Does it count towards my CRS Score?

Hello everyone,
As you all know that the IRCC allowed students to work full time from Nov, 2022 to April, 2024. My studies started from June, 2022 and have ended recently in Dec, 2023. (I am transitioning to a work permit). During this time, I was employed part time for 8 months, till March 01, 2023. I got a full time job in March and have been employed with no breaks ever since. That means it is 10 months of full time work. HOWEVER, this was all on my study permit. When I apply for my PR application, is this experience counted in CANADIAN EXPERIENCE?

I am just doubtful cuz there are no updates on IRCC website for such cases. If the experience isn't counted, I would love to take suggestion as to when should I apply and in which category? (I also have 2 years of foreign experience).

No, it doesn't count as Canadian work experience. Only work from the time you applied for a PGWP counts.
