Self-taught vs university
On the other hand, as online education options advance, both because of their offer and their low cost, many young people end up acquiring job skills on a self-taught basis. However, finishing a college degree also involves effort, discipline and fun, as Elon Musk says.
But this fun, in turn, involves the creation of valuable personal and professional relationships. These last advantages are still relevant when competing in the labor market.
According to Elon Musk, when hiring someone, take into account creativity and ability to innovate, before academic achievement. Furthermore, it disregards the importance of order verticality, allowing employees to take action to develop an idea without the need to request authorization.
Either way, if someone has those skills, plus a college degree, they may be at an advantage against other candidates.
