The short answer is no. There are many famous business leaders who didn&#8217;t finish their university degrees and there&#8217;s no evidence to suggest that<a href=\"http:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Graduation-Degree-Money.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-483 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Graduation-Degree-Money-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Graduation-Degree-Money\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Graduation-Degree-Money-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Graduation-Degree-Money.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0their lack of a degree has hurt them. But let&#8217;s face it, as legendary as they are, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerburg&#8217;s experiences and success are the exceptions, not the rule.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, there are jobs that require a degree (or multiple degrees). There are others that are currently being done (or could be done) by people who attended community college, earned a certificate, or learned on the job.<\/p>\n<p>When you&#8217;re looking for work and you don&#8217;t have a university degree, your best bet is to look for positions that are being offered by smaller companies that do not use an automated\/electronic resume screening system (read this article about <a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/hidden-consequences-online-screening\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>online screening<\/strong><\/a>). In these situations, your resume will be reviewed by a person who can see the skills and experience that you have acquired and set your resume aside for a second look. In contrast, the automated systems may reject your resume if it does not include a degree, regardless of your other qualifications.<\/p>\n<p>When you are called for an interview, you&#8217;ll really need to demonstrate what you can do for your potential boss by making the connections between what you&#8217;ve done in the past and what you can do in the new job. You&#8217;ll need to inspire confidence in your ability to perform the duties that are required effectively and reliably. If you know that you can do very well in the role but you sense that your potential employer is unsure about taking a chance on someone without a degree, you might offer to work for a few days on a trial basis. Tell them that they can treat it like a simulation (essentially a test drive, but for a car).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-9728\" src=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"two candidates different degree\" width=\"324\" height=\"243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454-1024x769.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454-510x382.jpg 510w, https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/1885454-1080x811.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/><\/a>You may be relieved and pleased to know that one of my clients who did not complete university was recently offered an excellent job \u2013 and he competed and won against another applicant who had a Master&#8217;s degree. My client had a great resume and a compelling <a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/your-cover-letter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cover letter<\/a> that got him through the initial screening. He had also acquired many useful skills and experience over the past 10 \u2013 15 years. Perhaps more importantly, he performed well during a <a href=\"https:\/\/ioadvisory.com\/blog\/work-simulations-can-be-your-best-friend\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">simulation<\/a>. As part of the interview process, after some preparation time, he had to complete a one hour task that simulated something that he would need to be able to do while on the job. Clearly, when placed in the simulated job role, he convinced the hiring committee that he was the best applicant even though he didn&#8217;t have the best education.\u00a0 When you\u2019re good, you\u2019re good.
