i had a spotty resume and bounced back and forth between jobs/freelancing. its not that big of a deal. there's even a positive, it's given you insight into how different teams work. any experience is good experience. a few suggestions: - only list the most important roles in detail, summarize the rest or don't list them at all. i have a big bucket of "freelancing, etc" on my resume for all the small stuff - if you get asked about the short stints, brush it off like "i was finding my footing in the industry" or something, then pivot to what you did right - I kept learning the whole time, did xyz side project, got a broad look at the industry, etc - the way to get your foot in the door is apply to as many roles as possible. a resume site and some side projects helps too this industry needs as many smart people as possible, keep going and you will do well.
