Getting a Job Without a College Degree

When Does The Job Hunt Begin?

What is the level of education that one needs to acquire before seeking a job? Should it be after graduating from high school or is a college degree essential before seeking employment?

Looking at some of the statistics that are pertinent to the issue, we find that less than 43 percent of students complete high school - out of which only about half enroll in college. This data pertains to the year 2003 and 2004 as reported by the National Center for Education.

Many Jobseekers Do Not Possess a College Degree

Considering the data above, it becomes apparent that a big portion of job hunters do not have a college degree. Therefore, the fact is that a good job can be had without a college degree.

When a candidate has the knowledge, skills and the right attitude and drive to excel, there is no dearth of opportunities to land good jobs.

However, this is not the right answer for describing a “good job”. In reality, a good job is one that you find pleasure and delight in going to each working day of your life.

Applying these standards, numerous jobseekers may be holding ‘good jobs’. The inevitable result is dissatisfied individuals who harbor a deep sense of disillusionment, even if they are able to get good salaries.

In reality, job satisfaction comes from doing a job that is in line with your passion in life, something you seriously believe in - and not the salary that it gets you. Therefore, the main criteria in selecting a job should be looking at what you enjoy doing and what you make in terms of money, rather than going for something that pays well and trying to force yourself into liking it.

You can begin with no money, except a car and gas, business cards and other things can come once you do your first few deals. So read on, this is exactly what to do.

First find where your old houses are in the city, but avoid ghetto areas, go just one house step above those areas. Then look for the boarded up houses, pizza fliers in the driveway, and overgrown grass in the yard. These are likely abandon houses, or in probate. Good!

Now as you are looking for these houses investors call it driving for dollars. Get on the phone and look in your local newspaper under real estate wanted, or real estate in general. What your looking for are the ads that say something to this effect “we buy houses.”

Call those numbers up persistently, in several different newspapers, like the thrifty nickle, or nifty penny and tell the folks who answer you are bird-dogging and scouting for property for extra cash. Can you help them, ask them this.

When they agree, ask them what areas and what type of houses they prefer, write it down and focus in these areas looking for houses. When you find a house, get the address and look it up in the county website for the name and call the owner and as them if they are looking to sell.
