^^ above is very true.. Some folks like me have NO educational training, solely doing what we know from starting out the hard way.
I've been engineering since 1989, two years before I graduated high school. When I interviewed with Verizon this past summer they passed over 2 guys with college degrees with only a year or two experience and 1 guy that only had 10-12 years experience to have me that has 18 years experience+one summer of being a lineman(@ 16yo 1988).
Do a good job, the work experience you get now will be the body of the cake, with your degree being the icing for any future employer. |
