Be honest on resumes and in person.
There is no way you can obtain the experience that you put on your resumes being in an entry level position for 6 months. I would rather have a person willing to learn with limited experience and the nerve to behonest
then a person who overblows their qualifications. Be honest on your resume and you will save yourself embarrassment when you interview for that mid level or high level job. Good luck to all of you and may you find a job that makes you happy.

I appreciated your comments - In the past, in other situations, I have found that honesty is indeed the best policy. I realize the until I have experience in the trenches, that "paper MCSE" label will stick with me. Thanks again for your comments - including to my post regarding availability of entry level positions. I took your advice and looked at the GHC site; I did find one position for which I do not really feel qualified, but I indicated willingness to work at help desk, tech, or any other IT position.

Thanks again!
