I would like to know what are possibly synonyms for:

"hands-on experience on ..." to be placed on technical documentation or a resume, for instance I have a phrase with some duplication as

"With 5 plus years of professional experience, and hands-on experience using C#", (experience is mentioned twice).

    What other kind of experience than 'hands-on' is there? I mean, why can't you say ""With 5 plus years of professional experience, including C#".?

  • @JasonBassford thanks for your comment, so I could rephrase it without using "experience" twice in such a short sentence?

  • Well, I don't know what professional means in this context. Nor do I know what practical C# experience would be as opposed to theoretical C# experience.
