hi guys,
i'm trying career switch , twice come during interviews may lying software know. no 1 has ever asked me software specific questions twice told "unlikely" knows software listed.
not have outlandish software list, use programs quite common (adobe photoshop/after effects, unity3d, xcode, visual studio, maya, zbrush, corel painter, microsoft office, stuff that).
idea combat 2 fold. first, 1 website use training (lynda.com) has printable certificates when complete course. i've printed them , put them in same binder put resume copies in case wants see. sadly, site use (digital tutors) has no such certificate system.
second working on online portfolio showcasing things have made in each software list on resume, way in case question comes up, can @ , see i'm not lying.
has had happen them? thoughts on idea combat this? not want leave off software listed because worked hard learn softwares use resume.
nobody should (or does) give weight printed online certificates. best bet put "examples available upon request." somewhere in resume.
also, saying "know" software ambiguous , doing more harm if "know" it. mean? microsoft office example: know icons like, or can write excel macros you're making grocery list? these different levels of "knowing."
