Re: University of Phoenix
Posted by Management on 5/08/07

    I double as an IT Manager for one of the largest banks in the
    nation and I also own/manage my own business. I am responsible
    for hiring talent for both my job and my business. I can assure
    you that the hiring process has changed a bit over the years.
    When I’m recruiting I’m looking for the best. Schools such as
    UoP, ECPI, and Strayer U, (to name a few) has served my staffing
    needs adequately as a lot of these students have hands on
    experience coming in the door. What I have learned during my
    tenure is that a lot of the college graduates from tradition
    schools do not come equip post-graduation. There are scenarios
    where students have never actually touched or seen the very
    things on their resumes in the real world. There are other
    scenarios where the graduates of tradition colleges are
    graduating with skills in outdated technology as major technology
    is changing on an average of 1.5 – 2.5 years… When hiring, I am
    looking for the person that can get the job done… Though I do
    not discourage applicants from tradition colleges, I have found
    that I typically recruit and hire students from technology &/or
    trade schools. In closing, I would like to add that the student
    determines what his/her degree is worth – not the institution.
    If you’re aggressive towards learning, growing and being
    professional & you are as equally aggressive and professional in
    your post graduation employment search – you should do well. In
    today’s economy, it is also imperative that you be partial to
    traveling, and/or relocating to secure post-graduation
    employment. Interning is also a very important step in building
    the foundation of your new career.
