Work experience confusion! Please Help..

[Shreyasi27]

Hello all,
I have an important concern regarding work experience.
I aquired a three-year part-time work experience (paid and in one job),
while doing my PhD. So while my "real" job was to do PhD research, I had
working contract of teaching, for which I got regular salary. This way I was
a PhD employee and not a PhD student. I am genuinely conecerned if that would
be counted as work experience under express entry, as despite the part-time work contract, I still
obtained my PhD degree eventually. Any help would be greatly appreciated, maybe from the ones who have had working contract in their PhDs.
Thanks a lot in advance
Regards,
Parul

Thanks so much for the answers
1: Regarding visa status: My residence permit during PhD times would state Researcher, Employment under section so and so, which I don't fully understand, more so because its in German.
2: Thanks for the link: really helpful Yea, I submiited my profile using that particular NOC, as my duties overlapped with the ones mentioned there. I was just concerned since because even though I was paid for teaching, I actually was doing my PhD. Maybe I am over-analysing things.
Thanks so much again
