That's all well and good but companies have made it very clear that they're buying education levels.
In most cases, you're simply locked out of a job if you can't meet the minimum educational level. You won't even be called for an interview.
But not all jobs require a degree, and some even state equivalent experience in lieu of a degree.
As I said before, it can be plus, but it is not needed for all jobs.
Many start in a company at a lower level, get experience, perhaps take courses, and learn from those around them, and move up.
The degree may get you in the door, but it doesn't always mean it keeps you there.
