Dear All,
I got my internship paid job before the graduation from university. My question is whether the internship period able to be added to total work experience ,because I did have salary pay slips and internship contract.

Many thanks for your reply :)

As long as it was full-time employment, yes. However, ideally you will need to supply work references listing the hours and duties etc. Without the references CIC may not count the experience based on the salary slips and contract alone. Does the contract specify the duties and the hours worked?

Paid internship is considered as work experience
