How to Calculate Total Work Experience
Calculating professional experience requires adding up durations from different employers while meticulously handling the transitions:
- 1. List Your Employments: Start by gathering the exact start and end dates for every company you've worked for.
- 2. Identify Gaps: Note any periods where you were pursuing education, on a sabbatical, or searching for new opportunities.
- 3. Use the Tool: Enter your dates into our calculator. It automatically handles leap years and different month lengths to give you a result in Years, Months, and Days.
- 4. Account for Notice Periods: Most companies consider your "Last Working Day" (LWD) as the end of your experience for that tenure.
