Count Résumé Months Without Double-Counting Overlapping Roles

Adding the lengths of every role can count the same month twice. Enter inclusive first and last month labels to see each span, its shared months and the union of calendar months represented in your work history.

1 · role label | first month YYYY-MM | last month YYYY-MM

HYPOTHESIS / PROTOTYPE — checkout unavailable. Calculation is local. A draft is saved automatically in this browser profile when storage is available; Reset to sample clears it. Optional Pro history stores only five summaries and has its own deletion control. State links encode your inputs and can remain in browser history, clipboard or recipients’ records; share only non-sensitive rows. Optional external AI formatting leaves this device. The required site analytics beacon reports page activity; shared URLs contain encoded inputs. Do not treat an encoded URL as private. The calculator has no input-collection endpoint.

Data note: The tenure-span strip processes role label | first month YYYY-MM | last month YYYY-MM locally. Starter/sample selection and Run compute in this tab; no input is sent by the calculator. A local draft may be saved; explicit state-link sharing or optional external AI formatting can disclose inputs. Use non-sensitive labels.

Perspective: Before: concurrent role lengths could count a month twice. After: inclusive spans, shared months and the calendar-month union are separate readings.

2 · Read the tenure-span strip

Calendar-label reconciliation only, not hiring, employment-law or résumé-truth verification. It cannot infer full-time-equivalent experience, unemployment or honesty from overlapping spans. Verify dates against your own records and consult a qualified career adviser for consequential wording; do not use the result to rank applicants.

Optional filing controls are a local prototype.

Checkout is unavailable. The reading above is complete; print, CSV and five local summaries are optional enhancements, not hidden answers.

Before using the tenure-span strip

Month precision is common in a résumé because exact start and finish days may not be useful to a reader. That convenience creates a counting trap: a role ending in August and another starting in June share three month labels even if their weekly hours were very different. Use the union to understand your chronology, not to manufacture an experience claim. Freelance work, study placements, volunteering and salaried roles can all have concurrent spans; a shared month is not an error by itself. Keep role labels generic if you are experimenting or sharing a state link. The original source for dates should remain your own reliable records. No profile, résumé file, employer system or external job history is fetched by this browser tool.

Optional AI formatting, never the calculation

Manual entry completes this tenure-span strip for free without signup. If available to you, the free AI Studio interface linked in the sources may format fictional or non-sensitive notes; external access may require an account. No API key or AI call is built into this tool. Free-tier content may be used to improve products. Review each cell and transcribe it to the labeled row schema; do not paste the JSON object into the row box.

Format only these fictional or non-sensitive notes for a tenure-span strip. Return strict JSON shaped as {"rows": [{"label": "string", "cells": ["string", "string"]}], "setting": "string"}. The columns are role label | first month YYYY-MM | last month YYYY-MM; the setting is Overlap review threshold in months. Keep all supplied strings and quantities exactly; do not calculate, infer missing entries, invent dates or add advice. If any required value is missing, return an empty rows array and ask me for it separately. I will verify every cell against my source and manually transcribe rows using vertical bars before running the local calculator.

An AI response is not executed, fetched or trusted as a result. Missing values remain questions; the strict local parser checks the rows you actually enter.
