Hi Avita,
With college tuition costs climbing at a record pace, many high school students must decide whether to invest in a college degree or dive right into an entry-level job. Whether driven by economics or personal preference, this decision can have a major impact on the course of your professional career as well as your personal life.
As you pursue more specific career opportunities, the requirements for entry-level positions become more complex. Some jobs that require more interaction with customers and clients require bachelor's degrees. Many hiring officers like to recruit recent graduates of bachelor's degree programs, since they possess the specific skills to perform detailed tasks and the broad cultural knowledge to relate to clients and colleagues. If you're ready to climb the career ladder ASAP, an accelerated bachelor's degree program can help you get those credentials faster.
Of course, not everyone can afford to invest in a full-time, traditional degree program right after high school. Lacking a college degree does not have to restrict your career choices. Many professionals start their careers in retail sales, customer service, or other positions that offer on-the-job training.
Although a college degree program builds critical skills, few colleges and universities can fully prepare students for real-world challenges. Despite the substantial pressure to make good grades and to complete assignments on time, few college experiences can match the demands of a regular, full-time job. Hence experience is not a mandate while kick starting a career in the field of travel and tourism.
