Need advice — I described a self-employed venture as 'work experience' in my resume/interviews for a few job applications, w/o clarifying it wasn't traditional employment. I've now proactively disclosed the accurate picture to one of the companies before their BGV process, with all supporting docs. Has anyone been through something similar? What was the actual outcome did the offer survive, get renegotiated, or withdrawn? Trying to understand what's realistic.
