I currently have 2 associate degrees and I've applied for at least 30 jobs pertaining to my field in the last month. Out of those 30 jobs that I applied for -ONLY 5 - yes 5, I have had job interviews. My skills for interviewing are great and EVEN the employers have told me that I've done flawless in the interviews, but they hire the person with the higher degree. SO do you see my problem yet? I have even been turned down from positions that don't even pertain to my field, bc the person with the higher degree goes first. Take my advice-right now during the recession, employers are gonna step over you if a person has a higher degree than you...GO BACK TO SCHOOL and get a bachelors. It will save you a lot of time from filling out applications for jobs that you probably won't get. And please anyone who tells you that you need more experience to get a certain job they can shove it bc you probably wont be getting a lot of experience from jobs in your field until the recession starts approving. GO BACK TO SCHOOL-GET A HIGHER DEGREE!!!!! thats what im planning on doing next fall...
