I was updating my profile today and looking at the experience tab in particular. I know that many of us have experience in a wide variety of real estate related activities and it seems the drop down list doesn't represent some important areas.

I'm hoping to hear what others think about this feature.

My situation:
While I've been an accountant for more than 20 years, I've had many other experiences related to real estate.

One such experience is as an estimator primarily doing paint, drywall and ceiling systems on government and private jobs. Pulling quantities from blue prints and verifying the systems being specified in various parts of a building inside and out.

Estimating seems like an experience that others might want to know about or might search on. Other examples that I didn't find in the pull down that might be useful included:

Financial adviser, life insurance, building inspector, cost segregation, tax planning, abatement specialist, etc
