He is smarter and more experienced than I am and by overlooking him a company would miss out on one hell of an employee who could contribute immensely to the company.

Degree vs. experience...........
I have a friend like that, almost finished her degree but didn't....

She just lies and says she has her degree, and said jobs usually don't check. Last time I considered getting a job years ago, she was telling me I should do this.

I also know people who have purchased things such as cosmetology licenses in downtown los angeles, and actively work in expensive salons.
