Canada's Point System: Work Experience

let us further explore canada's point system.

to apply as a skilled worker in canada, you must meet the following 3 requirements:

1. you must have at least one continuous year of full time, paid work experience
2. your work experience must be in the category of Skill Type 0 or Skill Level A or B on the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC) (more on this next time)
3. your work experience must have occurred within the last 10 years

how will you get points for your work experience?

the point system for this category is fairly simple and straight-forward. you get points depending on your years of work experience as follows:

1 year of work experience = 15 points
2 years of work experience = 17 points
3 years of work experience = 19 points
4 or more years of work experience = 21 points
