Current Events > Are there any white collar jobs you can get without a college degree?

(+) Yeah! (+)

any you can think of

Plenty? IT support roles don't need one.
Office drone level and middle managers don't.

Win lottery and buy a white collar business

what are you referring to? middle managers? but you still need some formal training right

Most jobs will prioritize experience over a degree.

You could probably get a sales job eventually. It might take some time you'll need to work a customer service job for a little while and build a good reputation, but it can be done.

GEICO pays pretty well and I don't think you necessarily have to have a degree, though it's probably easier to get hired if you do have one.

I don't work in sales but my dad and my dad's dad do and they seem to enjoy it. I'm finishing up my Masters in Political Science and I'm interested in public administration jobs mainly.

Yeah. A ton of great office work can be either gotten into thru certificates (not degrees, usually just a year of school), pure contacts, or working from blue collar into office from the field. 4 year college degrees arent required for a lot of white collar work.

Most white collar jobs (or any job that pays a good wage) will want a bachelors degree or a certification or few.

really boils down to what your resume looks like and who you know...

mortage loan processor
car salesman

are two that come to mind. Just need a high school degree and some sales/customer service experience.
