Dear all, I have read through the comments and did some research. However, I would still like to ask for your opinion before I include the NOC 41201 experience OUTSIDE of CANADA as part of my work history to claim points. Please kindly advise. Hereby is my situation:
(1) Did a PhD in Canada, have obtained 1-year of CANADA work experience (after the PhD) under NOC 21311 - Computer engineers (except software engineers and designers). I am now in EE pool under ECE, FSW, and STEM eligibilities.
(2) Did a Master in South Korea, also worked as an Research Assistant during that time, i.e., conduct research, write conference/journal papers, but with no teaching assitant duties for 20 months.
My question is: Can I claim points for 1 year of foreign work experience under the Research Assistant position (NOC 41201) obtained in South Korea? If yes, is a letter of employment rendered from the professor with all the details (job positions, duties, salary per year, hours of works, period of work) adequate? Or it has to be a letter from the university?
Please kindly adviseas if it is possible to claim points on (2), I would have a much higher chance of obtaining an ITA.
Thank you all very much for your valuable time and feedback!
