If an employer questions your degree during an interview?
#48
bawhitsett Wrote:In order to get to the point to where you can justify your credit obtaining efforts, if necessary, I would suggest not letting your big 3 degree be the permanent crown jewel of your academic and professional credentials. Use it to check the "bachelor's degree?" box while pursuing other relevant experience and credentials. Hopefully you will eventually reach a point to where it doesn't matter, be it earned from Excelsior or the big state U.
:iagree:

If you're spending too much time talking about college, you're not spending enough time with what relevant skills you bring to the table. Everyone with a degree should have a certain level of knowledge, so don't focus on it - it's the same thing that any other recent grad will be talking about! Focus on your job/life experience and what makes you a better candidate than the other 499 people that applied for the position.
