   I have programming skills, but no actual work history in programming. Someone has asked for my resume. What do I do?

     @rahsheen Get any possible certification in those programming languages

     @rahsheen maybe you could put the programming projects you worked on (and tools you are familiar with) under a separate "experience" heading

     @rahsheen Write them down as skills. Don't present yourself as a programmer

     @edythemighty I don't have time/money to get certified. I should have already got my resume to them

     @rahsheen have you contributed code to any Open Source projects? That could count as work experience...
