If my 'official' job title was programmer but I was also doing network troubleshooting and administration as well as server configuration cause we had no one experienced to do it should I include that on my resume or would it look fake?

Should I only include the programming stuff since that was my job title

    Go on and add all you have experience in, everything adds. AND wouldn't mind doing again.

    Add everything. It may look fake but sometimes to the right recruiter it will look curious and when they question you on it they'll know it wasn't fake.

    Everything that you do adds up. Gives you unique strengths to do a job. The right recruiter knows, More so they know that you've the attitude of working on things outside your job roles, which to the startup world is a big bonus

    For sure add it. For example my job would mostly look at programming experience, but since we just converted the embedded system to Ethernet, among two otherwise equal resumes the network experience would break the tie. Even if it’s not network experience super relevant to embedded networking.

    @Tonnoman0909 reading his other rants for sure. I will say as you move up on career, and specialize, then let some of those resume bullets drop. You’ll also realize you forget stuff like that easier than you think.
