hi

I am an aerospace Engineer and have applied for canadian immigration. My job description has nearly same duties as mentioned on HRDC website. My job designation is Cheif Engineer; however, in my work experience letter I did not mention that my job title is one of those mentioned on HRDC website like
(aerodynamics engineer
aeronautical engineer
aerospace engineer
aerospace engineer - design and development
aerospace engineer - flight operations
aerospace engineer - flight support
aerospace engineer - flight test
aerospace engineer - mass properties
aerospace engineer - material stress
aerospace engineer - materials and processes
aerospace engineer - military
aerospace engineer - propulsion systems
aerospace engineer - systems
aerospace engineer - systems analysis
aerospace engineer - weight and balance
aerospace engineer, structures
aerospace reliability specialist
aerospace structural engineer
aerospace systems engineer
aerospace test engineer
aircraft design engineer
design engineer, aircraft
projects engineer, aeronautical
propulsion engineer - aerospace vehicles
space reliability specialist
stress engineer - aerospace
structural engineer, aerospace
structures aerospace engineer
systems engineer, aerospace
test engineer, aerospace
weight analyst, aircraft design - engineer
weight and balance engineer - aerospace)

rather I used my actual job title of Chief Enginer. Howevcer, my job duties are similar to those mentioned on HRDC website. I have an aerospace 16 years of education as evident from my degree and transcript and I have actually done the same aero job throughput nmy career of 12 years. How is that going to impact my work experience points. Because I believe all visa officers may be layman about job description to assess any individual's role.

Please if someone can explain. and If it has gne wrong what can be done then.

Job titles vary a lot, it's normal.

If your job description matches the main description of the NOC (the introductory paragraph) and your duties tie up with the list on the NOC, then you should be absolutely fine. :)

Agreed with loncan. Job description matters mainly. Designation is nothing to worry about much. Do check the "Main Duties" for NOC 2146 Aerospace Engineers here and match your job description from here too:

Thanks a lot guys. Im relieved. Well I have a extensive experience of aerospace industry working in different positions under job titles where none matched with those listed above but I have doing one or more of the same duties as elaborated in job description for NOC 2146.

Thanks again. I was quite worried.
