A former managing director at Google has called out people who claim to be alumni of Ivy League institutes without having completed an undergraduate or postgraduate degree programme there. Parminder Singh said he was disappointed to see "Harvard alum" on the CV of a candidate he was interviewing. Further enquiry revealed the candidate had only completed a short-term, four-week course at Harvard. In case of short term courses, there are usually no entry criteria (or comparatively less stringent ones) & anyone paying the fees can become a part of the course. Do you think this is fair?

In the startup world, practical skills and experience often matter more than formal education. However, honesty is still crucial. List your short courses and bootcamps, but don’t call yourself an “alum” unless you’ve earned a degree.
