Work Experience During Study

[Waleed007]

Hi I am Waleed and I live in Netherlands.

I finished my bachelors in 2018 Feb and worked for one year and in 2019 I started my masters plus I was working full time too.

So thats two years experience and now I have been doing my management trainee but also doing my masters

Will my work experience count towards the points or not?

Thanks alot

If it is skilled (NOC 9, A or B), you can use if for EE.

My NOC is 1123 in Marketing but my experience gained was during my master studies.
I am interested in express entry but I am not sure whether my work experience during studies will be accepted or not

It is skilled so it is fine. As long as you meet the eligibility requirement of one year continuous full time skilled work in one NOC after that you can use another NOC and work experienc.

Dear friends,
Please check what IRCC says:

https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=394&top=29

If your university is not a Canadian university and your are aiming to apply as FSW not as CEC then you can consider your work experience during studying years as a valid work experience,

This was confirmed to me by other colleagues in this forum, if you have another opinion feel free to share it with us,

Good luck for you all!!!
