Multi Degrees on resume?

[GettinMyBA]

I dunno - this conversation has merit for both sides... I think I would prefer to show the most applicable degree only, and then get very detailed in the experience section. Degrees are really just door-openers, aren't they? At least in my field (high level sales), multiple degrees are not only unnecessary, but it could get your resume tossed in the trash because they care more about experience than education (although without a degree, they wouldnt even look at your resume).

I also don't think that most people understand the feasibility of compressing timeframes in education. We all "get it" in this forum because we have made it our business to understand it... it touches home for all of us. But the average person, IMHO, doesn't reaize that credits can be applied to multiple degrees, you can test out of so many classes, you can (in some cases) work on a masters at the same time as a bachelor, etc. Showing a lot of degrees could look like you have spent your whole life in classes. Then if you show real work experience... well, you could look like a liar. While it may all be 100% accurate, if you appear to be a liar on paper, you will likely never get the interview to defend yourself.
