Teaching Assistant

[shl111]

Hi Guys,
I have worked as a teaching assistant at an IIT in India during my masters. Can I claim the same as work experience in my EE profile? What documents would I require?

Yes, you will need a signed employement letter on letterhead with your responsibilities, salary, hours per week, and time worked.

Will my supervisor issue it or my university? Also I have worked as TA for 8 Hours/week for 2 years. How much experience will it be counted as?

Should be your department, faculty or university. 1560 is full time per year so you don't even have close to a year experience to count.

Does this mean my experience as TA will be counted as zero?

Do you have any work experience? To be eligible for EE-FSW you need one year full-time, continuous skilled experience in one NOC or two years part time? Hours must total 1560 for part time over two years.

I have 2.4 year full time work experience as an engineer. I fall short of 8 months. That's why asking about TA period. Can I get some months as work experience from my TA'ship?

It will get you a few months but don’t think 8 months. You can calculate

Ok. I also have a work experience of 15 hours/ week for 8 months as a guest lecturer at an engineering college. I am hoping TA'ship and guest faculty period together may be able to make it 8 months that I require.
