SOC Codes change 2017

Post by coolbreeze » Fri May 04, 2018 3:54 pm

Hi

The SOC Codes are changed from April 2017.

2135 IT business analysts, architects and systems designers
Only the following jobs in this occupation code:

systems engineer in visual effects and 2D/3D computer animation for the film, television or video games sectors

data scientist employed by a qualifying company, where the job requires a person with a minimum of five years’ relevant experience and demonstrable experience of having led a team.

What is the impact for people who entered UK on 2135 in April 2015 with same SOC Code
