Show the duties, location and expected duration of each phase. A single broad title may hide a material difference in the work performed.
Document the sequence rather than only the final output
Identify collection, interpretation, reporting and any general site tasks, with the expected responsibility for each. Ask the employer to explain changes if weather, client access or another condition delays a phase. Keep the actual contract and support description aligned. Do not describe a future analytical role as if it were the only work from the first day.
The technology diploma and transcripts, certifications and technical-training records, project evidence showing the ability to solve practical problems or apply the discipline to research, and an employer letter naming the supervising professional and describing the supporting duties. The most useful thing an employer can provide is specific and boring: a letter that names the employing entity precisely, describes the professional duties in operational language, identifies the listed profession being claimed, and states the period and terms of engagement. Prepare the consulting or services agreement, incorporation records for the Canadian company, ownership and director details for any US entity involved, and a letter from the US client describing the professional duties, period, and payment arrangement.
