Such and such university (2010)
It doesn't lie stating that you have a degree but it gets past auto and human filters and you can explain that you went but found it wasn't for you, you weren't learning anything, you worked better being self taught or whatever, you've got your foot in the door ( or at least as much in the door as people with actual degrees on their resumes)
- YeGoblynQueenne 10y agoI've always wandered what would happen if I put something like "Have not graduated from Oxbridge, 2010" in my CV. I'm pretty sure recruiters don't bother to look at your CV anymore these days- I keep being asked for my phone number, which is in my CV, after I've sent it in. So if they're just doing an automated scan-and-screen, I'm sorely tempted to try and game it.
- paulddraper 10y ago> Such and such university (2010) A single year universally indicates the year that you graduated.

- iamthepieman 10y agoMine actually says Such and such university - computer science and information assurance (200x-200y) A degree would usually include B.S. Computer Science. I always tell them in an interview if it comes up or if they ask for transcripts/proof of degree. I actually have nearly 30 credits more than necessary for a degree but missed an elective requirement for my degree program due to a miscommunication about transfer credits. By the time I figured it out my graduating year I already had job offers and would have had to stay an extra semester to take one class. I figured I would take care of it later - started working - never did and it has never mattered.
