How to order a an array by a 'date' from an API

Hey all,

So I have an array ‘experience’ which lists a persons career history. This comes from an API and the structure is like this:

experience

• title
• start_date
• end_date
• summary
• company
  – name

etc.

What I’m trying to do is display the api results in a repeat (this works great) - but the order of the experience items in the array is not in order from the API, so I need to order them myself.

Wondering the best way to achieve this?
