Hi everyone, so I have a slightly complicated work history. I was in the process of creating an Express Entry profile and am aiming to get an NOI from OINP since my NOC is in demand.

>I worked for Company A (part-time) in an irrelevant NOC for a few years. I shifted to a full-time role and am still working there present day. This is the relevant 0124 NOC.
>I worked for a Fortune 500, Company B (full time) from 2017 to 2019 in an irrelevant NOC.

For obvious reasons, I just want to not mention Company B at all as I only want to claim the Company A experience against my relevant NOC.

My question is:

According to this link, which is a direct quote from CIC, it is perfectly legal for me to not include any work history i do not want to be judged on. This means I can not-mention Company B in work history right? And only include it in my resume CV (or can i skip it in that too?)?

“It is in each candidate’s best interest to provide as fulsome a work history as possible at the Express Entry profile stage to ensure that all of their work experience is assessed against the minimum entry criteria, particularly if they may meet the criteria for more than one program. However, a candidate who wishes to disclose only that work experience which meets the minimum entry criteria for a specific program may choose to do so when completing their profile. For instance, a candidate who has worked in Canada in a skilled occupation on a full-time basis for twelve months at the time they complete their Express Entry profile, and who wishes to have their work experience assessed against only the minimum entry criteria for the Canadian Experience Class, would not be required to disclose their work experience over the last ten years or work in a low-skilled occupation at the Express Entry profile stage for the purposes of being assessed for eligibility to be placed into the pool. Note that for any periods of Canadian work experience disclosed by the candidate in their profile, they must indicate whether that work was authorized and under what circumstances it was authorized (e.g. LMIA-based work permit, work permit exempt).”
