I got an email from Washington State, first off, I was surprised they were even hiring, but they wanted a resume, a state application, references, and a copy of my degrees(which they called diploma?)

I had to do this once, and I thought it was strange as hell. It would be a lot easier to forge a photocopy of a degree certificate than to forge a transcript.

I agree. I won't regail the entire story, but lets say that once I lived in a previous state that required like 8 different addressed documents to get a photo drivers license. I only had about 5.. so i photoshoped the rest.

I still got my drivers license.

Yeah.. way to go anti-terrorism measures. More trouble than it's worth.

Twenty years ago I might have understood this. It would have been much harder to forge then. But today? I could make one with Photoshop in no time. And I would need to do so if asked, since it's been over twenty years and mine is long lost. (Go UWGB!)

That sounds like GOOD NEWS.... Hope it's not too much of a hassle to get what they want, and I sure hope something comes of this!

yeah what's up with that phenryss April 28 2009, 05:31:10 UTC
My current job asked me for mine. I am in Alaska...my mom is in Pennsylvania...just how would you like me to materialize that one? I have not seen my Degree in over 10 years!! And now they want me to produce it as proof that I got my degree. 3 years after hiring me???? Luckily they settled for an official transcript. (it's been over 20 years for me...)

Sorry, I don't keep that document anywhere around me.

Wierd requests...

Hugs!
