Hi,
I have worked only in one company after college and got two promotions (Same NOC and duties). Not sure whether to add multiple entries in work history or single entry.

My job titles:
  1. Software Engineer Intern: Aug 2015 to Jan 2016 (Paid and full time)
  2. Software Engineer: Feb 2016 to March 2018
  3. Senior Soft Engineer: April 2018 to present
I read in other threads that, you can give single entry with the first job title. In my case that is Soft Eng Intern for 3+ years. I do not want that.

As of now, in my profile I have single entry with Senior software engineer from Aug 2015 to Dec 2018. Is this okay ?

Should I give 3 separate sections in my work history (all positions are continuous) or only one ? I can get 3 different letters or single letter with 3 different sections from my employer if necessary. Please advice...

You can definitely get one letter which can mention that you were promoted. Since the NOC is same, putting single entry in work history seems to be sensible thing to do, I don't know why you don't want that.

Thanks for the reply.

I prefer single entry. What I don't want is to have a single entry saying my first position, which is Software engineer intern.

Currently my entry is single with my current postion, which is senior software engineer. This position is only 9 months old. I just wanted to know that if this is OK ? (Giving 3+ years as senior software engineer)

In similar situation and I didn't understand how single entry will justify whole experience. If I say my position is xyz1 for last yr then it's incorrect and if I say it's xyz2 for whole year that's incorrect too. Splitting this seems to be more logical though I know NOC is same
