LOL, I'm not really sure what you mean "apply for a skill type," but if the duties and responsibilities do not match the NOC code that you indicate, your application will most likely be refused. There's a lot more flexibility with job titles, which do not have to match.
You will be considered on the basis of your experience, whatever skill type or types are involved. But if it is Skill type B, the rules for Skill Type B (Language scores, application caps) will apply to your application.
I mean, should I use the NOC code 2283 for my application rather than NOC code 2171?
Does job title matters? Can you tell me which one matches my duties and responsibilities. Thanks!
