Why is my work experience showing as four years when it is more?

It depends. Your work experience may show as four years due to how some systems calculate and display experience.

- Many platforms count only the full months between your start and end dates, which can round down your total.
- Overlapping jobs or career gaps may also affect the total shown, depending on the system’s method.

If your actual experience is higher, review your listed job dates for accuracy.
