Do you think university degree may help you find a better job in your country?  

Yes. If not to find a suitable job, it is so that you could raise in ranks faster than those that does not have the same qualification as you are. This is true with some of my friends who are currently studying in a degree program in my university. They are diploma holders and one of the main reason they decided to get a degree was because they could no find a position suitable for their degree. For example, a friend of mine could not get a job as a chemical engineer eventhough he has a diploma in it. He was working as an engineering salesmen before this which is selling pumps, boilers, compressors and other factory equipments.

Well for a job that means stable career and stable source of income, then I have to say yes. Companies here in my country look for competent people who graduated with a complete degree and from a reputable school. Although I have to say, I still make money without being a college graduate yet. I will still pursue my dream part-time job, which is to earn thru my music. I know that it is not a stable source of income, but it will definitely help me earn a little extra money which is a good help in my opinion. And I am starting as early as now. I would not depend on earning after graduation alone.

In our country we believe that by getting a good course in reputable college universities would land you to a better job. But its not always that case, sometimes it also need to be how good you are. You really need to excel as what they say once you are applying for a job you need be a "an apple in the basket of tomato". YOu need to be unique, unique in a way that is impressive. Impressive with the skills and ability.

Some company has that thing who you know system. Before you could apply they will asked you who refer you? or do you know anyone from this company?. Once you have a good answer they will no longer look at your diplomas or resume they will schedule right away your initial interview.

Thank you for your wonderful discussion regarding this matter in our country it is better you get degree in a university to find a better job especially when you aim a high position in a company you need also to get master's degree.But when you are still studying and you have a part time job it is also helpful to get better job because they considered your work experienced and assured you that you are able to do your task and responsibilities in your job.

hi mokkka,this question is very difficult,i don't can give exact answer,because I have known for many who are university graduates but they can not find jobs and other who are not university graduates,they have beautiful jobs,therefore i don't say that university degree may help you find a better job.sometimes it is all about luck or connections.

No, mokka. I live just north of your country, in Romania, and from my personal experience I can say that in many Balkan countries the relevance of education is close to zero, as you need to know a person who can "introduce" you within a certain system (either public or private).

Here in Romania for instance, if you want a good job in a public institution you have to:
- be a member of the governmental party (parties)
- pay someone a certain ammount of cash in order to get the job (you pay even for them to advertise the job in such a manner so no other candidate could jump into; and even if she/he will jump, the job would be dedicated to the one that pays)
- sleep with an influential person in order to obtain a good job
- be a part of a minority group (either ethnic, religious, sexual) or of a mystical coommunity (like freemasonry, etc) in order to have these organisations work for you and find you a suitable position within the system
- be stupid and have a good ability to kiss some parts of your future boss's body
- be a part of a local/regional/national gang/mob
- be lucky
