Hi @theguyraghav , if I were you, I would have written everything down and provided CIC with accurate information, no matter how long it is. Please share with me how you did and what was your experience. I'm going to apply for my citizenship and have a similar situation.
Thanks!

Yes. Being employed isn't one of the criteria when applying for citizenship. It is important to truthfully declare everything that you remember on the application. You can have multiple entries and/or overlapping entries. What you can't have are gaps so be mindful of that.

Good luck.
