I am applying through an agency for an HSP visa. I am currently in a state where I am waiting for the agency to let me know if I need to provide them with more information in order for them to submit the application for my HSP CoE. While I'm in this state, I have some free time to search for any relevant documents.
On my application, I have indicated that I have 10 years of work experience. What will immigration typically ask for in order to substantiate this claim?
I found this page, which appears to be the instructions for employers wishing to sponsor an HSP visa. https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/applications/status/newimmiact_3_procedure_index.html
This is the page with instructions regarding the CoE for employers seeking the normal working visa, for which I think I would also need to meet the criteria.

I previously found a document on one of these pages which links to a PDF (in Japanese) describing the types of documents that might be requested to substantiate various claims on the application. However, I cannot find it at the moment.
What are the typical documents that are requested to substantiate work history? If you have experience applying for an HSP visa, what documents were you asked for?
I am a software engineer with more than 10 years of professional experience. However, during this time I have held more than 5 different roles at various companies ranging from independent consulting (paid at above market rate), to full time employment for more than 3 years. In some cases I have on onboarding and offboarding information, but in other cases I think it would be difficult for me to locate this information.
