Work experience start date

Hi, I have some questions about the work experience that applies to EE.

I graduated college in April 2018. Had study permit and coop work permit till July.
Due to a delay of the college certificate, I had to wait until the end of June 2018 and applied for my post graduate work permit on June 28,2018.

Right after I graduated, I started working as full time at my coop work placement in May 2018.

My post graduate work permit was approved on August 14, 2018.

Here are my questions:
1. Would my work experience start date for EE be June 28,2018(when I applied for PGWP) or August 14, 2018(when it was approved)?

2. Was it okay to work full time before I applied PGWP? The study and coop work permits were not expired before I applied for PGWP. If there is a problem, I was thinking to ask my employer to write my full time work start date as July 1(after I applied PGWP..) otherwise it’s going to be May 1,2018.

Thanks a lot!
