With the cost of higher education in the USA leaving college grads with high debt, I’m wondering if going the tuition reimbursement route would be a better alternative route for some.
Instead of going straight to college after graduating high school, racking up a lot of debt, and having trouble getting a job afterwards because you have no experience, why not start out in an entry level customer service/call center type role at a company that offers tuition reimbursement, work on the degree or certifications you want, then you’ll have both the education and work experience to help facilitate moving up to a higher paying role.
Maybe people aren’t aware this is an option? I definitely didn’t know about it when I was younger until I joined the workforce. It pains me reading about some of the tough situations on here. Hoping this can maybe help someone!
