I'm not sure if I'm asking the right question, but i need an adjective to describe myself in my resume. I'm trying to tell that I have solid experience on my field but not just in a couple of topics, neither in a subject. I'm someone who have experienced any relevant subjects on my field. I feel like i can use "wholly" but at the end that doesn't sound right. What should I call myself?

Fully-fledged might backfire. It means having the necessary feathers for flight. If you say I'm a fully-fledged X, it could sound like you are a proud recent graduate. Perhaps possess a wide-ranging knowledge of... Can you give a sample sentence with a blank? It might help to get you more accurate answers.– S ConroyCommented Sep 2, 2018 at 0:32

I use a sentence emphasizing experience, rather than fledging. The latter makes me think of young birds; which has nothing to do with the hiring process. Technically, your usage is correct, but I think, tactically, it's wrong for the situation.– Wayfaring StrangerCommented Sep 2, 2018 at 0:32

@WayfaringStranger i feel the same that it's wrong for situation.– ozgurCommented Sep 2, 2018 at 0:47

@SConroy "wide-randing knowledge of software solutions" sounds just vague and somehow unconvincing to someone who needs a software development manager.– ozgurCommented Sep 2, 2018 at 0:47

full fledged OED
fig. fully developed or qualified; having the fullest set of credentials or qualifying characteristics
As in:
2002 New Yorker 25 Nov.
He became, at the age of seventeen, a full-fledged crime reporter on the New York Evening Graphic.
My sense is that a person can be fully fledged in the figurative as per the above definition.
