Most of these jobs never did--did anyone think they couldn't get a retail job or warehouse job without a degree? Starbucks barista? Seriously?

It's also wrong about listed jobs:they list Publix as hiring pharmacists. That job absolutely requires a degree, I know of no way to get liscenced without one. So overall this is just crap, the only mildly interesting info was IBM being listed.

I used to work at Publix. They don't hire pharmacists without degrees, as it requires a PharmD and being licensed with the state, however they do, very rarely, hire pharmacy technicians without any kind of degree and train them on the job. I have only seen this happen one time.
