I agree just tell them what they need to know on the resume. If they go through your logbook and start asking questions well that's just the way it goes.

I have known of graduates in accounting and finance doing exactly the same thing to employers. They would would advertise for bookkeeping/mundane jobs with the kicker on the ad 'do not apply if you are a graduate' so what happens? All the graduates just apply anyway forgetting to mention that they have just spent four years at uni then when a job comes up for a 'graduate position' they can tell the new employer that they have 6 months experience in the industry plus a degree.

Just play the game.
