John’s Answer
I work at a large company that has many different types of jobs. I graduated from a 4 year College (UCSD) and was hired as a manager. I currently work in an External Affairs organization and educate the public on issues important to AT&T.
You might want to refine your question to be a little more specific. Higher end jobs require more education but you can hire into entry level jobs with a high school diploma or AA degree from a community college.
Some employers will assist you with tuition once you are employed and that may help get to where you want to go.
Interview skills and having a good resume are important in getting hired.
