What documents will I need to provide for my professional experience to support my study abroad application?

You should provide clear proof of your professional experience as part of your study abroad application. Typical documents include:

- Resume/CV: Outlining your education, jobs, internships, skills, and achievements.
- Letters of Recommendation: Usually 2 - 3 from professors or employers who know your work.
- Work Experience Certificates: Official letters confirming your role, duration, and responsibilities.
- Recent Payslips: To verify employment and income.
- Tax Returns: Especially important if self-employed.
- Proof of Self-Employment: Such as tax filings or invoices, if relevant.
- Volunteer Certificates: If you have done volunteer work.
- Social Insurance Records: If applicable, to show contributions.

Make sure all documents are signed, dated, and clearly state your employment periods. If you need help preparing any of these, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
