Pretty sure leaving the education off of your resume entirely is fine. Don't lie if they ask, but as others have said, once you get experience under your belt, most employers tend to stop caring about it altogether. Even if it is listed as a requirement on the job posting, hiring managers care way more about competence than they do a fancy piece of paper.
replyYeah. This is what I've been told. The issue is that getting your resume into the hands of a hiring manager feels increasingly difficult.
replyThe past year or so has probably been the worst market for developers since 2008. It's been picking up again, or at least it was for a bit.
replyIf you haven't yet, one thing that would be worth doing is working with a recruiter. There's plenty of bad ones out there, of course, but a good one will have direct access to the people hiring. If you're willing to work on-site, even better, as that will significantly reduce the number of people you're competing against for attention.
I hope you find some of this useful, and either way, I wish you luck!
