Hello guys,

I need urgent advice. I have been working in Canada since June 12, 2019 as a manufacturing engineer( noc 2141). However recently i am offered a design engineer position (noc 2132) at the same firm and i don't want to let this opportunity slip.

I will apply for express entry in June 2020 however i'm not sure if having 2 noc's will count as 1 year work experience.

Can someone please help me out on this?

It will not count as 1 year of work experience for FSW / Express Entry. To qualify, you need to have 1 continuous year of work experience under a single NOC.

I agree for FSW, but wont it be counted for Canadian Experience class?

Ah - you didn't mention you were in Canada. Yes - it will count as 1 year experience under CEC.
