[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The PhD has become the next masters in a lot of hard sciences like chemistry and biology.[/quote] +1000 Actually a PhD is worse in these fields since it puts people in the overqualified category.[/quote] THIS IS ME, RIGHT NOW. I was recently told I am "woefully over-qualified" for a job that would've been an excellent fit. [/quote] Leave your degree off your resume! I have two master's degrees, but I'm over 50 and have been a SAHM for 16 years, so I leave all that off my resume. I'm applying for entry level jobs like librarian assistant and administrative assistant. I just want to work, so I'm dumbing myself down. Plus I'm older than everyone who interviews me, so I don't want to intimidate them with a bunch of degrees as well. [/quote]
