Hi Topsy,
I've one question, if you don't mind to answer.
In CIC occupation list, my occupation is Automobile Service Technician but I was working as Technician more than 5 years ago, however, right now I am working in the same field but in senior level. My current designation is Automobile Supervisor where my job responsibilities are different than Technician. What do you think, with supervisor experience in the recent 5 years, I can apply for provincial nomination or not? Whether I can claim the points for whole year which is about 8 years or not?
Or I can only claim points for 2 years in which I worked as a Technician?
I will really appreciate, if someone help me on this as I desperate need this.
thanks
Here's the thing, NOC is not particular about job title, rather
job roles and duties.
It's very common to be in a NOC, and get promoted to another NOC, however in most cases what you do from day to day doesn't change too much. What i think is important is for you to look at the NOC that matches your
Job duties the most and choose that as your primary NOC.
If your duties didn't change too much when you were promoted, you can retain the NOC even with the higher job title as long as you can get the experience letters for the NOC to be consistent
Worst case, if your duties changed drastically such that you can't combine the NOC's, pick the one you worked in longer as your primary NOC and get experience letters for that.
e.g. I was system administrator (2281) for several years before being promoted to Manager (0213). However, I'm claiming 2281 and got experience letters for my managerial role to match 2281 instead of 0213 because what i was doing did not really change much.
Considering your situation, 5 years is enough to qualify for PN. So if you can get experience letters, go with that. (I only claimed points for 5 out total 8 years i worked cos i couldn't get experience letters for latter 3 years)
Good luck.
