Hello Everyone,

I would like to know about the NOC level as I am not sure which I should apply.

I am in the middle of applying for express entry where I have a couple of questions which need an expert to advise, your help would be highly appreciated.

My case is I have 5 + 7 (still working) Months of Canadian experience. For the first 5 months, I joined a company that operates electrical stores as a website developer and developed some small scale applications for their internal purpose at $14 per hr. After that, they didn't have work for me so I opted for a logistics company as a Web app developer at $15per hr where I did the same job as of my previous job. I have some concerns regarding my job category, please help:

1: is it a problem that I don't have experience from one company, the experience is continuous?

2: the nature of both companies is not related to IT but my title is for NOC 2175, will it be a problem for my file?

3: The median wage for the job is $33 and the minimum is $20 but I did the job at $14 & $15 as I wasn't able to grab a job with a good pay scale, hence opted for something to comply for express entry profile.

4: Any suggestion on what should be done.

I would be grateful for the advice.
 
1. No.
2. No.
3. The issue is IRCC may have a hard time believing you genuinely performed the duties of a skilled NOC for that little pay.

Thank you so much for advising me on this. What else do you suggest in this case, the company in which I am currently employed can help me with the job title? Do you suggest me to change the job title according to something similar which should say jr web analyst or something similar.
