[quote=Anonymous]I'm another one with multiple advanced degrees and I encountered some issues with this when job searching. There were perhaps a couple of employers who seemed intimidated by the many degrees or my age (I was a career changer). I agree that more were just probably confused and wondering if I was flighty and not serious about a career path. I found the best approach was to craft an extremely logical, simple and coherent narrative about why the varying degrees made sense and were part of my development and overall plan. Once I did this my unusual resume became an asset rather than a liability. Good luck to you.[/quote]
