First time looking for a job, transcript needed?

It's my first time looking for a job and was just wondering whether I need to prepare my transcript (university, that is). Do I provide it along with the resume, or are they going to ask for it?First time looking for a job, transcript needed?
They shouldn't ask for your transcript, unless you are interviewing in academia.





Just put on your resume any honors, extra curricular activities, and what you graduated with (AA, BA, BS).First time looking for a job, transcript needed?
Upon being hired, you may have to provide a transcript, but I wouldn't include one with your resume or bring it along on interviews. However, you might want to highlight on your resume classes you took that strongly relate to the jobs you are applying to.
Unless you are applying for a teaching position you do not need to provide your college transcripts. Just have your diploma(degree) if needed. Otherwise make sure your resume speaks for itself.
