Is this correct grammatically?

"At least two years experience in"
"At least two years experience with"
"At least two years of experience in"

I think in/with depends on the context, but is 'of' must be used before 'experience'?

If this is part of the job description for a want ad, I would say "Minimum two years of experience in [soar industry]....

If this is a resume, just say the number of years of experience. Ex: Ten years of experience in [IC manufacturing]

Note: [ bracketed is an example]
