Do you need a degree to get on?

No phil not necessarily. Plumbers and electricians earn a pile or money every day and they don't need a degree: just intelligence and the willingness to work.


Phil, isn't this a re-hash of... well, of every thread you have started so far, only this time you don't beat around the bush so much? :rolleyes:

It is as direct as you get from me.

But what if we are talking jobs like being Managers in business?

But how is your A level person going to get a Manager's job if you come up against a person with a nice polished MBA when your MBAer will know all the fancy management stuff and your A leveler won't?

Experience?

Phil, I'm bored of the job threads now. The GF ones were so much more fun. Can we have those instead please?

Is experience really going to give you the detailed knowledge to top an MBA though?

Yeah a degree is lovely. but pretty soon every other 22 yr old entering the workplace will have one. You need somthing that will make you stand out from all the others.

Experience, charity work, skills, hobbies, 'other qualitfications' are all things that make CVs stand out.

Not that your degree is pointless its just not enough to assume its an auto matic in.

Also depends on sector i suppose???
