Eh, What's Up With College Degrees, Doc? Complex CEO Says 'Forget About It!'

No Sheepskin? No Problem Doc!

What's up doc? Bugs Bunny here reporting live from the wacky world of employment! Seems this fella Aaron Levant big cheese over at Complex is turning the whole hiring shebang on its ear. He says he doesn't give a carrot about college degrees! "Of course you realize this means WAR!" Well not really war but a major shift in how folks get hired. He basically said 'Eh they got it on their resume? I'm not even lookin'!' Now that's what I call a real hare brained idea! But maybe just maybe he's onto something...

Hustle Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

This Levant fella is all about the hustle doc. A side hustle that is! He's lookin' for folks who are out there makin' crochet blankets selling 'em on Etsy or even juggling chainsaws for spare change (wait maybe not the chainsaw thing). "I knew I shoulda taken that left turn at Albuquerque!" Why? Because according to Aaron it shows ambition and drive. More than a third of you humans are already doing it so maybe he's onto something huh?

Seven Jobs in Seven Years? Fuggedaboutit!

Now here's where things get interesting doc. Levant isn't a fan of job hopping. "Of course you know this means war!" Er I mean 'red flag'! He says if you've had more jobs than I've had carrots something's up. Either you're not loyal or you're not good enough. So if your resume looks like a revolving door better have a good story to tell! Maybe blame it on a Tasmanian Devil infestation at your old office works every time!

Skills That Kill (The Competition)

Forget the fancy diplomas doc! Levant wants people who can hit the ground runnin'. He's lookin' for folks with the right skills and experience. Basically if you can do the job before you even get the job you're in! "Ain't I a stinker?" And if you don't have the 'right' experience get creative. Take a class get a certification learn to juggle chainsaws (okay I'll drop the chainsaw thing). Just show 'em you've got the goods!

Faster Faster I Say!

Levant wants folks who can help Complex zoom ahead doc! He doesn't want to spend time bringin' you up to speed. No time to stop and smell the roses I say! He wants you to bring all that experience and let it all hang out. That's what I said Doc! Now doesn't that sound like a deal?

That's All Folks! (For Now)

So there you have it doc! College degrees? Eh maybe not so important. Hustle loyalty and skills? Now you're talkin'! Maybe I should apply at Complex. I'm pretty good at outsmarting Elmer Fudd. "What's up Doc?" And remember kids you can buy a house!
