Query:
“I’m looking for employers’, recruiters’ or HR professionals’ answers to these questions:

1)      Do you view job candidates with online degrees as more, less, or equally qualified as candidates with traditional degrees? Why do you feel this way?

2) Do you understand the difference between for-profit and not-for-profit colleges and universities? If so, do you view job candidates with online degrees from for-profit institutions as more, less or equally qualified as candidates with degrees from not-for-profit colleges and universities? Why do you feel this way?

3) Would you view an applicant from a non-accredited online degree program as more, less or equally qualified as candidates with accredited degrees? Why do you feel this way?
