no. They will not give you an interview if there's no bachelor's degree on your resume. It's a very common company policy, and frankly it's probably a good policy because requiring a bachelor's degree filters out people who may be intelligent but are too lazy to ever follow through on getting work done.

>>13295388
Yes if you can show something equivalent to that degree

and at least at Goldman Sachs, and probably at all the other top firms, they contact your university to verify that you graduated and that you didn't lie about your GPA, so you can't lie about having a degree either.

SOME banks will accept military experience as the equivalent of a bachelor's degree. But I doubt the top ones do.

WTF? I thought degrees were worthless anyways

>>13295406
This. Unless you have some kind of exceptional experience/ achievents, e.g. former politician, highly succesful trader etc. or you know someone.

you're looking at the wrong field. Tech companies will hire people with no degree but solid work/programming experience. Finance -- not so much. In finance they still do things the old way.

I'm a CNC programmer/setup. I feel like I can't make more than $60k doing this shit and I don't really have time/savings to go back to school for mechanical engineering.

if you're still in your 20s, I think you should just take the plunge and go get your bachelor's degree. Don't tell people your age and blend in and have fun but also study your ass off and get a top-tier GPA and a solid internship or two so you can land a six-figure job.

So yeah, if you can get into the top public university in your state, then do it and go, and take out some student loans. In-state tuition plus living expenses shouldn't cost you more than $20-25k per year if you live frugally, and if you graduate with $80-100k of debt but can land a job making $100k you'll be able to pay off the debt in no more than 3 years. And after another 2 years or so you'll have surpassed the point where you would've been if you had just kept working for $60k per year throughout the whole period. And for the rest of your life you'll be a six-figure earnin' boomer.

If you don't have the credentials to get into that university, then continue working your current job while pursuing an associate's degree, taking night/weekend classes at the local community college. If you graduate with a 4.0 GPA, which shouldn't be very hard at community college, that will guarantee you admission into the top public university in your state. It might even result in a scholarship or a free ride at that university.

You're gonna make it, anon.
