..Is it ok? Has anybody done this and got approved?

hi Pantaiema,
I have an issue where my current company gives me only a letter with length of service in the company and current designation. They are not ready to give the duties and responsibilities in the letter. My company is a worlds renowed software developement cmpany and I work in its India Development Center.

Can I do these things...

1. We have our company recruitment website open to anybody who wishes to join the company. In that site I found few jobs for my position. I want to take print outs of these job advts which give detailed duties and responsibilities and qualification required for the job. Then I can query up my company global online employee information which shows by position,designation, my location,contact details, immediate manager and HR MANAGER name and contact details on it. I can also get an org chart showing my level in the org below CEO. Can I use these printed documents to link my position and genuity?
I can also attach original offer letter as secondary evidence. Anyway, I will be using my last 12 month payslips in past earnings section.

Please its very urgent and I would like to apply this weekend. Is that OK?

Dear sssm

You need to realise that a lot of good work experience letter is rejected not because it is not detail but because of X factor.

Explain to them and show evidence from the same position in the Job search site, news paper, etc. Also level of payment is very important to justify the work you are doing. If you are doing students job, low skille jobs it is almost imposible that you will be paid 30K.
Please note that I am not saying that it will work but at least it will help your case move further.

Assuming that you prove that your work is graduate level. You still need to convince them that you are actually doing that job (your work reference is genuine). Remember that verification is lenghty and costly and they might think it is not worhty to go into this process if they do not trust you in the first instance. Remember that if they do not convince they will try to find an accuse to reject you in the first instance before the actaul verifiction take place. I believe a lot of people fail in this stage.
Tax document is one of the important document to prove your involvement.

If you can not get a very detail work experience letter there is nothing you could do. This is typical if you are working in the hight street company (at least I know in the UK), they just give you standard letter, nothing more. But caseworker will consider it because they know that they will easily verify your work experience letter and they are dealing with highly respected institution.


Good Luck
