Express Entry Work Experience

[gladpublic]

I have about 1.7 years of experience, as of now, in Stage acting (5135 actor code). And I have previously worked for 8 months in the same field but then took a break of 2 years and continued and now have 1.7 years experience. Can I count that as 2+ years to improve my score. Since All this experience is in the same field in the past 5 years. (for express entry)

I think you can only list 1 job to get points and it should be the longest (to get more points). The other jobs do no get points

To claim experience, you should have minimum one year of continuous experience if it is under FSW. It doesn't matter if there are breaks in between as long as the minimum one year continuous experience is met.

They should have over three years experience now since the post is over a year old.
