I've received an ITA and am getting my reference letters, but I realize I have a problem with my NOC. You need 75% but I only match 4 out of 7 of my NOC's duties.
My NOC is 11201 - Professionals in business management consulting
Professionals in business management consulting occupations provide services to management such as analyzing the structure, operations, managerial methods or functions of an organization in order to propose, plan and implement improvements. They are employed by management consulting firms and throughout the public and private sectors or are self-employed.
- Analyze and provide advice on the managerial methods and organization of a public or private sector establishment
- Conduct research to determine efficiency and effectiveness of managerial policies and programs
- Conduct assessments and propose improvements to methods, systems and procedures in areas such as operations, human resources, records management, security management and communications
- Conduct quality audits and develop quality management and quality assurance standards for ISO (International Organization for Standardization) registration
- Provide guidance and support to businesses on regulatory policies and procedures; ensure internal compliance with regulatory requirements; and prepare submissions and filings with regulatory bodies
- Plan the reorganization of the operations of an establishment
- May supervise contracted researchers or clerical staff.
Of these 7 duties, two are industry-specific.
- Conduct quality audits and develop quality management and quality assurance standards for ISO (International Organization for Standardization) registration
- Provide guidance and support to businesses on regulatory policies and procedures; ensure internal compliance with regulatory requirements; and prepare submissions and filings with regulatory bodies
These would be more common in specificially manufacturing or operational consulting, and also financial consulting. I worked in strategy consulting, so I don't deal with this.
As for supervising contracted researchers, we do not hire contractors and we do our research ourselves.
It seems it's impossible to meet 75% unless you're in a niche that covers those extra fields? Any advice?
