Quick answer
To calculate total work experience, add the start and end date of every job (tick “Currently working” for your present job) and set the cut-off date from the notification. The calculator adds up all periods, counts overlapping jobs only once, and shows the total in years, months and days — and whether it meets the required years.
Both start and end dates are counted. Years and months use 365 and 30 days. Some recruiters count only full-time experience after the essential qualification — check the notification.
