Dear all,

I have done 6 months paid internship and 6 months paid master thesis in Europe. So will this be counted as my work experience? As, I still have contracts from those firms, where it is mentioned that I worked there for XYZ salary per month....whats your suggestions please???

If it was paid job - should be included in work experience.

Dear Gurdeep..

Thanks for the advice.

But I don’t have the salary slip as it was done 2 yrs before and it’s my mistake that, I didn’t keep it with me. Will CIC Office ask to show the salary slip or I can ask my previous employer to mention how much I was paid during that time with my experience letter???....Please guide me!!!

Hi

They can ask you for sallary slips from your current employer not the previous. It is better if your previous employer mention your sallary on experience letter.

hi guys,

I had a paid internship as well for an year and then a permanent posting as a pharmacist. My pay stubs still read pharmacist intern as the government is slow in making changes. is that a problem?

Also i was on my annual leave for 3 months and i got an unpaid leave of 1 year, i got married during that period and moved to another country which is now my country of residence. I haven't resigned from my job yet, will that be a problem? In my reference letter they have specified i was on annual leave and now on unpaid leave
