I have a quick question regarding the appropriate NOC code for my occupation. I am based in US and worked in a consulting firm as a senior data analyst for 2 years right out of graduate school. My primary responsibility was developing predictive models to analyze data, as well as data reporting using Tableau for senior management. But when I got my employment verification from my employer, it stated that my official title is “Senior Sales Reporting Communication Analyst”. And I double checked with them and they said this is what they have in their system

The list of titles in NOC does not have a ‘data analyst’ as far as I can tell. The closest one I could find is ‘Mathematicians, Statisticians and Actuaries’ (2161). Should I report this as my primary occupation? Or I am wondering how much weight is the selection of NOC based on job title as opposed to job responsibility?

Thanks!
