If a jobs requires bachelor degree and you have mba, do you put your mba on the resume or just bachelor degree?

I find it unappealing for some reason to put MBA after my name, but I caved and did it on LinkedIn and my resume.
I'm not exactly sure how much of a difference it makes on my resume as I'm in technology which is the primary qualification, but business acumen is almost always a factor in my case so it undoubtedly has a better shot of at least getting a look compared to no MBA.
LinkedIn views increased when I added it to my visible name.
Include both degrees in resume, whatever the education requirements
ADD DEGREES AT THE END OF RESUME IF YOU HAVE A FEW YEAR'S PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
If you lead with degrees you immediately come off as a fresh grad and people reviewing many resumes may toss you aside based on that alone
Add MBA title to your name in resume header

Most people would but ALL educational qualifications on their resume. That said, a resume is not a legal document, so you can "edit" what you put on it as long as your intention is not to mislead and you aren't claiming something that isn't true.

If you include your MBA, your chances of getting an interview is much higher than it would be if you did not include the MBA. The bachelor's is a minimum requirement. Meeting the minimum requirement is great but I'm sure at least 100 others also met the minimum as well. If you include your MBA in the app and only a certain few have the MBA, you're gonna stand out! Definitely put the MBA on your app. Good luck :)

Unless it was a part-time program while you continued to work full-time, you're going to have to explain your gap in employment at some point anyway. So I'd put the MBA on.

Is the MBA relevant? Would it help you be better qualified for the position? Does the job listing mention "minimum" of bachelor's degree required? Include the MBA.
