Should I list all my employments including those less than 6 months?

Hello everyone,
When creating my EE profile, I listed my graduate research assistant appointment (NOC:4011) in the work experience section. I did a 6 month internship in my last year of PhD which somehow broke my GRA employment into two separate parts, a five year one before the internship and a 8-month one after it. I only listed the five year one (as it was continuous and more than one year), and I got the "Welcome to the pool" message. Today, I found out the reference letter I'm going to receive from my school would show both appointments. So now the question is:

1) Should I list all my employments including my internship and the 8-months GRA?
2) Can I change my profile now that I am in the pool?

The rule of thumb is if you want to claim points for it then yes. But that would mean you would need a reference letter for each of them. Looks like you are going to so yes. You can upload the same letter for both of the employments
