Hi,

This may be a novice question but I am not clear on the process of calculating work experience from different fields of work.

My wife worked as a software engineer for 2 years and then she quit her job and did Masters in Business Administration. She then worked as a Business Analyst for one year after she graduated her MBA.
I would like to know whether her Software Engineer work experience will be taken into account for Express Entry profile, which would get her to 3 years of work experience.

Appreciate your response in advance.

Yes, she can. Any work experience in the last 10 years is valid as long as it's in either NOC A, B or C.

You just to have to consider that for FSW, you must have at least 1 year of continuous work experience in your primary NOC (she can use her software experience as primary) and then to fill up the full 3 years she can use any other experience, regardless of NOC or duration.

Wrong.
Any work experience in the last 10 years is valid as long as it is in either NOC 0, A, or B.
C and D will not be considered at all.

Thanks much eiden03.
Thanks Raja for pointing out the C and D job categories.
 
hi, can part time paid work(same NOC) done during my full time Masters count as work experience? I have 1 yr exp before my masters as well?
