Hi Forum members,

I have 15 years of work experience and recently received ITA (met both FSW and PNP). My Work Experience is as follows -
  • 1st Company - 5 Years
  • Study Break - 1 Year
  • 2nd Company - 1 year
  • Current Company - 9 years
In the work history section of the Application, is it suffice to enter details of only 2nd and Current company (which is last 10 years) or do I need to enter information about the 1st company as well. One of the issue is getting a reference letter from the 1st company because none of the managers I reported to are with the company now and the HR is asking for a current Manager details to provide the reference/work experience letter.

Please advise.

I worked on projects involving the Edge AI box for video analytics, which is relevant to my experience, but I'm unsure if that’s sufficient for the application without the letter.

Please advise.
You need to include details of all relevant work experience, including the first company. If you're unable to get a reference letter, provide alternative documentation like pay slips or employment contracts, and explain the situation in your application.

You can list just the last 10 years (2nd and current company) in the work history section, as that's what's required. You can still include the 1st company in your personal history if needed, but it's not mandatory for the work history if it's outside the 10-year window.
