12 years experience in states is considered junk and an outdated product experience because after 7 years almost all the software and hardware are considered dead. Life cycle of IT products shrinks every day because there is new innovation and much-improved product availability at drastically low prices. There is famous saying that every newborn baby is better than what last-born baby. This is absolutely correct as per evolution theory.
My sincere advise is do not boast for number of years experience But say specifically what product experience do you have. Latest the product - it is better. Shallow knowledge is even dangerous and it wiil ne better not to have. Therefore get expertise on one product or maximum two products and show your skills. Do not ever think of coming to states with this experience. You will be ending up pumping gas on a gas station or washing dishes in a restaurant.

To think that experience ever becomes obsolete shows an incredible lack of understanding. The "latest and greatest" generally builds on the foundation of previous success. Often times, it is merely a faster clock, a more integrated chip set, or expanded code that differentiates the newest versions.

If your experience has resulted in understanding of the fundamentals, it is valuable. If all you know is what some associated vendor course told you, your limited knowledge becomes obsolete when that version is upgraded.
