Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I'm not saying that you can't answer the question when asked in an interview or that you need obfuscate it on your CV. I'm saying to not let the "you must have x years of experience" in a job posting scare you away from applying if the only thing that you're lacking is having "x years of experience".
If you're sitting down for an interview, the interviewer isn't all that likely to immediately end the interview once they realize that you don't have the arbitrary number of years experience posted in the job description.
I mean, one you've learned how to do something like add 1 and 1 to get 2 it doesn't matter that you've been doing if for 1 year or 50 years.
