Hi! I’m running a startup after work for this neat web app idea for the last year and although we’re still building it, I feel like I’ve learned and directly applied the product management role. And I love it! My question is: should I list this as experience in my resume? I want to do this full time at a real tech company to get more experience just not sure if it would be helpful to get noticed. Currently F100 internal consulting for five years.
