Question for you HR people -- OrlandoHokie 03/18/2021 2:02PM

Don't employers verify degrees through universities? ** -- Hokie1992 03/18/2021 2:36PM

I mean, that's if they even attempt to verify it ** -- hoosnowahokie 03/18/2021 3:19PM

Yes. I think they take care of it but I was not sure. ** -- OrlandoHokie 03/18/2021 2:47PM

I think most of them want you to bring your yearbook picture now ** -- bigbadbird 03/18/2021 2:52PM

I'd be more concerned about them finding out about your criminal record ** -- Brown Water 03/18/2021 2:50PM

As long as my GPA is sealed, I’m good ** -- Hokie1992 03/18/2021 4:09PM

Assuming you are in the same field I highly doubt anyone will ask -- turkeywinghokie 03/18/2021 2:35PM

Pretty sure it's on the employer to do a background check. Should be -- Brown Water 03/18/2021 2:15PM

You need to carry it with you to the interview ** -- bigbadbird 03/18/2021 2:12PM

I had to bring my diploma to house closing (inside) -- FfxStationHokie 03/18/2021 2:33PM

Similar...they asked for grad proof...I emailed them a pic of my class ring -- All The Way 03/18/2021 3:12PM

Did you wear it on your middle finger for the picture? ** -- TexasGobbler 03/18/2021 3:28PM

Really dumb idea... -- JoesterVT 03/18/2021 2:24PM

Should always carry around a laminated copy! ** -- vthokieq 03/18/2021 2:23PM

Wallet size of course ** -- Brown Water 03/18/2021 2:33PM

Hope his big arse doesn't crack the frame ** -- bigbadbird 03/18/2021 2:47PM

You're thinking you need the actual paper diploma for a job? Seems unlikely -- JoesterVT 03/18/2021 2:05PM

Ok. Cool. Thank you for the info. ** -- OrlandoHokie 03/18/2021 2:06PM

Link attached. I did this years ago for grad school, wasn't difficult. -- riosvt 03/18/2021 2:07PM

Checking now to make sure the nightmares are not actually real------> ** -- Coach McGuirk 03/18/2021 2:45PM
