Serial start up founder here...

If you're trying to find a job, you're not applying for "anything and everything". You're applying for a specific role. What you want to do with your life is a question you need to ask yourself.

Once you've answered that question, you can then tailor your resume to that role. Remember a resume is just an advertisement that highlights related work experience. You can leave off stuff that's unrelated, and bring more attention to stuff that shows you can deliver value in the type of role you're looking for.

And then I would suggest crafting a (true) story about why you're looking for a job and how your experience has led you to working on the specific problem the role addresses.

Strong agree.

I'd only add that you might have way better chances reaching to people personally rather than using traditional channels. It might sound obvious, but it's easy to forget that you can use the same skills you've built as a founder to find a job. Just messaging a few people working in the industry you care about and scheduling some calls can go a long way.
