I am trying to reconcile your question, with the one you just posted recently (16 days ago)

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21041836

>" ... Interests & life goals: Product Management, starting his own startup (or a profit making lifestyle business), reaching financial independence Recently graduated from an Indian college with computer science degree.

Don't have too much savings but have strong experience under belt from working on several side-projects (with users) during college years.

What career advice would you give? Also, would you suggest he look into moving and working in the West, (Germany or Canada) or stay in India?

I may be totally misreading this, but it seems like are you are posting your resume + availability, under AskHN umbrella.

With regards to your direct question on if a failed startup needs to be mentioned.

I would say if you have things to show (eg a website/app link), and you feel comfortable describing your contribution there -- it should be mentioned.

May be under 'other projects' section.

Thanks for your advice.

No, I have no intentions of posting my resume on HN. I respect the HN community's advice more than any other software communities. So, it is natural for me to want to ask advice here. And I can't ask for advice without posting atleast some information about where I'm at. Also, I don't have any contact details on my HN profile.

Moderators, if you feel the thread does not belong here, you may remove it. I can't see an option to delete the original post.
