I think that if you want to work for somebody else, such broad experience can be a bit of a burden.
HR people want to pigeonhole you in a 2 line paragraph to know which profile you fit. So I try to make it easier for them… I work out industries /roles I can realistically target, and prune / rearrange / focus experience to match their checklist. Almost spell out in neon lights which is my profile.
Once you pass the first round you can loosen up a bit and make space in your story for additional relevant experience.
Also, make sure it’s relevant experience. If the role is multi country, I highlight international exposure (even if the actual content is not relevant for the role)
Good luck !
