Correct Response For Questions Regarding Lack Of College Degree
- by rofly
I've managed to land two programming jobs so far with a partial college degree. One was an internship/co-op type position that turned full-time, while the other is contract work I've received mainly via circumstance.
I have an interview forthcoming (my roommate works at the company) and they have already asked him why I have not completed my degree. The real reason is purely financial, but I was going to ask the SO community if there was any way I could spin this disadvantage to make it look more favorable.
So, Stack Overflow: How can I look less like a slacker given the circumstances?
