He held the following positions during the employment with us.

May 1996 to July 2002 as Software Engineer
August 2002 to March 2009 as Senior Software Engineer
He worked on HRMS/Payroll project as a Project Lead/Senior Software Engineer and proved himself very capable of managing projects and showed an organized and methodical approach.

During the employment with xyz company, he has worked as Senior Software Engineer with the added responsibilities of an Analyst and worked on numerous projects.

His responsibilities and job description is attached in the following page.

This reference letter has been issued on the request of Mr. Zahid Zia in connection with his application for Australian Computer Society and Department of Immigration and Citizenship Australia.

If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me.

Responsibilities were in the attached page with the letter.

1. Design, Development and testing of IT applications and Systems based on client specification and requirements using Oracle tools and platform.

2. Investigates such problems and opportunities to determine the feasibility of system solutions that appear appropriate.

3. Prepare the DFD's and Flowcharts for the System.

4. Producing design specifications as required from functional specifications, identifying all sub tasks, estimated the duration and feeding back to the technical architect, technical lead and project manager.

and couple more

But the problem is which everyone knows that in our continent no matter india or pakistan employers hire less people and assign more jobs to them like one person is responsible for designing, development and testing as well or designing, development and also doing DBA job as well. So i guess i was being very honest and made a biggest mistake.
Mine was a bit different, i sent my docs for ".net professional" and they assessed as is.
i included my client interaction, testing, development, project management and resource allocation etc.But i mentioned my every project, tools & techs used in each, roles and responsibilities in each project, so in each project ".Net" was prominent.

Letter from my current company was of 2 pages, along with projects, tools and techs and from prev company it was of 3 pages with same pattern. They did not ask me to send any further document and assessed me in 37days, if you want tore-apply i would not feel any problem to share my letter.

A friend of mine lives in your city, ping me if you want his help.
