"Professional journey" or work experience refers to the total time you have spent in paid roles, internships, or projects related to your field after completing your education. This includes any job where you gained practical skills and industry exposure.

For students applying abroad, universities and visa officers use this information to assess your career growth, skill level, and how your work experience connects to your chosen course.
