ENEB Master Thread

[innen_oda]

Putting Titulo Propio is accurate but unnecessary and will draw questions that could've been avoided. Americans don't know what that is, it's a foreign term that has no use in the American context and serves no purpose to you by using it. Stick with Master's because that's what it is and because that's what's written on the documents.

Hard disagree, because it's not the same as a 'regular' masters and obfuscating this fact crosses the line between painting yourself in the best light, and active deception. A remarkable number of positions require specific qualifications, which may not be divulged to you as an applicant.
This is one place where, if I as your friendly hiring manager had questions (and you were otherwise perfect to bring in for interview) and I didn't know what this titulo propio was, I'd simply google it and then decide if such a degree would be a problem for that position. (It may or may not be, depending on a lot of things, few of which you can predict from the outset.) I am more likely to google unfamiliar uni names, and given the first page results associated with this 'degree', this area is probably where you should be worrying.

Frankly, if you've arrived at the final stage of the hiring process and your hiring manager discovers you've wasted their time, you won't get a chance to argue your case. Your hiring manager is not your mother, and the idea that you'll 'have to explain' is laughable. No hiring manager is going to waste their time following up. You'll get the standard 'thanks for interviewing, but we've decided to go in another direction' email (leaving you to wonder where it all went wrong - you'll likely never even know it was the ENEB degree which caused it) and be put on a list of people to absolutely never consider ever. If your (ex-)hiring manager is really PO'd or stressed after all this, you'll probably even be included in the Friday evening rant at the pub. And when you apply somewhere else next week, no doubt there'll be a text, one hiring manager to another: 'hey, they've applied here too. Lol.'


Also, comments like 'the people in Spain' are a bit unpleasant and a simplistic way to regard an entire nation (which is made up of many individuals). 'The people in America' need to stop doing this.
