About Work Experience!!

Post by UKWork » Wed Aug 02, 2006 2:49 pm

Hi All,

I have got around 8 years of experience in IT.

Can i show my work exp of present and past employers as per the guidelines of HSMP. [Period is around 6years].

And will submit the simple format of previous companies, the way they have given me. Is it ok? Or do i have to give for all my previous employers?

I am planning to avail only graduate level of exp of 5yrs.

Depends if you want to claim those points as dependent or main applicant. If you are the main applicant then you should go for 8 years and your employer reference letter should be a detailed one or else you can just have the simple letter with 5 years of work exp...

Hi,

Please, know that is advisable to make sure that the employers reference must that " the role/responsibilities requires a minimum of Bachelor's degree and that the post is graduate level". Make sure that the roles a re well detailed (State start and finish dates for each role with company, salary earned, type of employment - Full time only is acceptable,Position and attach a copy of the advert for the position where it is stated that it requires a degree. I know you will surely make it.

Keep the flag flying.

Enjoy.....

The reason why they do not normally accept if you just have employment reference because they have experience in the past, people fake the documents. This is especiassly true if you are not working in the well known Multi national company.

Also they know that in some countries you migh get a dozen of employment refenrece even without involve in that job

I feel that you should focus on the graduate level work... so if you worked at a McDonalds for 3 years and 5 doing graduate IT work, then why would you even consider putting the non-graduate?

I worked in many jobs up until recently so I am going to put the ones that really count.
