Schooling

[niterydr]

The job market is becoming increasingly more and more competitive. Go to the school that will give you the best education, especially if they help you get your foot in the door of a new industry.
While education is what you make of it, there are some cases to where a degree from "XXXX" University will mean a lot when it comes to the Human Resources screening process.

This is very true. I have the job I have now for two simple reasons: Where I went to school. and who I worked for previously. Oddly enough, my boss went to/worked for the same.

This is why I was asking about different schools. But I guess your in a different industry than Peter and Andrew.

Agreed. The "college" I went to didn't do either (offer job placement in the industry and great education). Though it was okay it was definitely not the best experience I had but learned A LOT from it.
