Work Experience Calculator FAQs
Can I add more than one experience period?
Yes. The tool combines multiple valid work periods into one total.
Can I count my current job?
Yes. Enable the current-date option and leave the end date empty.
Does the tool check post-qualification experience?
No. It calculates dates only. You must apply the official eligibility conditions yourself.
What about overlapping experience?
Avoid double-counting overlapping periods. The current Batch 1 version warns you when overlap is detected.
Can I count private-sector experience?
Only if the official notification accepts that type of experience.
