I just wanted to say: thank you for being so clear. I am starting my job search but already have done quite a bit for a recent college grad and I'm exactly hitting the issues that you're stating here.
One question: how can I make up for the fact that I did iOS development in 2014, web development in 2017/2018 and teaching in between (2015/2016)?
Should I just put a white lie on my resume and claim everything was: web development, iOS development or education? Depending on the idea that people who give references are willing to lie for me because they know what I'm capable of?
It's a very directed question, I'm sure there are other strategies and I wonder what strategy one should use for a gapped resume like mine (in terms of web dev, ios dev or being a lecturer/teacher).
