If you're skilled, then you have experience. That's the point.

Experience doesn't mean you need to have had a paid job. Decide to make a game in Java? You'll have a lot of experience. Publish it on GitHub, and that's what your interviewer is looking for

And there's no way for the interviewer to know how many years of experience that game actually represents. If it's four instead of five, they'll never know. That's the trick.
