Hey guys! Nice to meet you all!

This question may be about Skilled Worker but now may major goal is to get into the pool of EE. I have been working as a game designer and I hope this job should count as a professional one. But as I checked the codes in the NOC job list, I feel a bit confused - I'm not a coder or a typical illustrator (though I did UI/UX tasks like drawing a UI); for most of the time I just designed the game systems and CG for a mobile game and write documents for coders.


Here's a list of jobs that may be related to my field:

NOC 2174 - Computer Programmers and Interactive Media Developers: This NOC code includes professionals who design and develop interactive media, which can encompass game design.

NOC 5241 - Graphic Designers and Illustrators: it's often more associated with traditional graphic design and illustration.



If there are game designers (level or systems designers) here, could you provide some insights? Thanks guys!

Welcome! Your experience as a game designer aligns well with NOC 2174, as it includes interactive media roles. Focus on your UI/UX skills and system design when applying for EE.
