Hello friends,

I'm currently sitting at CRS 430, with 2 years of Post-doc experience. Browsing through the forum, I found that paid research experience during PhD could also be counted towards work experience. If I add that experience, my CRS would jump to 440+, and that could make all the difference between getting or not getting an ITA in the next draw.

The problem is that I did not receive salary throughout my PhD, but during two discontinuous periods, each of 10 months duration. Would that be a problem? And what NOC should I choose? For my post-doc, I'm choosing NOC 2121 (biologists). My PhD was in the same field. Should I choose NOC 4012 or NOC 2121 for that period (if I'm eligible to add this work experience at all).

Please advise!
