Being that for any job, you are supposed to tailor your CV to the position, is that not the time to omit the section that mentions your Engineering degree and relevant work experience if you know you are going to be over qualified? I guess its not really ethical to do that, and may even be illegal, but its not as bad IMHO as inventing qualifications and experience you don't have which is a definite no no!
