Yes, your two years of work experience and one year of coding experience in the commercial finance domain will strengthen your study abroad applications, especially for master’s programs in the UK and Canada.

Universities value relevant professional experience, particularly when it aligns with your intended field of study. This background shows practical skills, industry knowledge, and readiness for advanced coursework.

Make sure to clearly highlight your work and coding experience in your CV and personal statement to showcase how it prepares you for your chosen program.
