Help needed :

1.Can you update your job bank profile more than once? Would that require your EE profile to be updated as well?
For instance, if i accidentally forget to list a skill / competency, can I update the profile in Job Bank without updating my EE profile [ assuming that the missing information doesn't add any points to my profile]


2. My actual job title at my ex-employer doesn't match the job titles in the job bank but the job duties match the NOC code under which I have applied. But while creating a profile in the job bank , am using "search" for the job titles in my NOC code & unable to find my exact job title. Should I be selecting the closest title from the available options ? There is no option for me to manually enter the job title. Please help.


3. I applied for EE under one single NOC code. However I have a job that I have done under another NOC code as well. Can i list that job on my job bank profile ? This job is important from a career standpoint as it shows a progression in my skills + responsibilities but since I didn't have 3+ years of experience in it, I didn't list it as the primary NOC code on my Express Entry profile.
So here's my situation
NOC Code A = 5.5 years of work ex [ Primary and only NOC code I listed on my Express Entry profile]
NOC Code B = 2 years of work ex [ and most recent] . Can I list this job on my job bank profile?

Yes. Only the creation of job bank profile impacts EE profile in terms of activation. After that, they appear to be disconnected from each other.

2. My actual job title at my ex-employer doesn't match the job titles in the job bank but the job duties match the NOC code under which I have applied.

Search for jobs using industry-specific or job role-specific keywords.

3. I applied for EE under one single NOC code. However I have a job that I have done under another NOC code as well. Can i list that job on my job bank profile ? This job is important from a career standpoint as it shows a progression in my skills + responsibilities but since I didn't have 3+ years of experience in it, I didn't list it as the primary NOC code on my Express Entry profile.

Yes. Job bank profile can have a more accurate representation of your career profile than EE.

Thanks so much, as always !
On a side note,I am still rueing the loss of an ITA because I forgot to create my job bank profile in time for the 12th draw.

Apologies for a follow up question regarding point no 2, if I understand you right , I should be doing the following
1. Find titles that mirror the job duties most accurately and select those.

I'm sure you'll land an ITA soon. Keep the faith.

On the job search function, go to the Job Seeker tab on top left and choose 'More search options' and you're on your way.

All the best!
