YES!!
What the hell is wrong with you people?? A degree does not show your BK shift manager that you are humble! It shows over-qualification and too much of something is bad. They KNOW you are desparate if you are trying to show them your are educated.
Jeeesus I have to write a guide to this sooner rather than later.
When applying for a job, a carpet bomb strategy is OK but that just makes it harder and remember, unless you are on the company's website filling out an application (which is a CV by extension) then a resume is an advertising tool. Not an application. My resume for BK only had my experience from wal-mart, McD's and KFC. It also was choc full of my work principle and how much I do not denigrate the kind of work I am liable to get because it is a "character building" experience. I never once included there that I am currently in school. They want someone stupid that can ONLY show up on time and shake the fries off the restrainer. Nothing else.
Give them that.
Also, charging rent is douchy.
