How to use "having + past participle" to talk about future?

While I was writing a letter, I wanted to express that I want to get experience in a particular field that I don't have at the moment; after I get such experience, I will be able to attract giant corporations. Could someone please let me know, whether the following sentence implies the same meaning as I wanted to express.


Moreover, having such an experience, I will be able to apply for big companies without difficulty.

  • Correct, but it's not the construction you asked about in the header, namely, How to use "having + past participle " .
  • You can add "gained" or "acquired" after "having" if you want a past participle, and that would also be correct.
