Prepare the raw chronology

Provide the roles, dates and transitions you want to include, marking any uncertain information. Tap Tap Go’s AI profile assistance can help turn notes into a readable account. Ask it to preserve uncertainty and distinguish overlapping activities from sequential roles. A polished timeline should not imply that an advisory position was full-time employment or that a project lasted longer than it did.

Choose relevance after accuracy

Once the chronology is correct, select the experiences that support the current introduction. Not every role needs equal space. Keep the detailed record as a reference and use the profile to explain the meaningful progression. Check any summary that claims a number of years or a continuous specialism. Those phrases should follow from the actual record rather than being added because they sound persuasive.

Imagine this

Hypothetical scenario

A hypothetical founder provides notes covering employment, independent projects and an advisory role. The assistant organises them, but the founder checks the dates and labels. The public biography then highlights the relevant progression without implying that all activities were equivalent positions.

Make it practical.
