IT Job Without a Degree?
·
· Score: 2, Informative
I dropped out of High School as a sophomore. I immediately started working in the industry. I started out doing tech support, and eventually moved into network administration. In IT, what people care about is your ability. Companies know that the best IT workers are those that would do it as a hobby even if they couldn't do it professionally.
Did your college education teach you any spelling? Or do they stop teaching that in grade school? "Experiance" is not a word.
I love how everyone with a degree thinks that is the only way anyone can get a good job. What you need is the knowledge in your field. If you don't have the knowledge, get an entry level job and work your way up. Learn on the job and improve your skill set. When you can't move up in that company anymore, move on.

This has to be my all time favorite, but PCAnywhere for Windows will give me "Error loading error message." on boot.
