I am seperating from the militarty after completing my 4 years of service. Would you be more inclined to hire me or would you hire some kid that took the 4 year college route? Also I am about to finish my assosiates, am 24 yrs of age; so that is just about the age of my fellow job hunters. Anyways if you were the Interviewer who would you pick and why? Thank you.

A bachelor's degree will always be worth more to employers than an associates degree. If your military experience is directly related to the job you want (like if you were in IT in the military and want an IT job, along with an AA in computer systems) then you might be considered equally. But a lot of jobs require at least a bachelor's degree.

It depends on what your MOS was in the military and what are you getting your degree in, Of course how much experience you have and also how well you do on the interview. Being that I am retired military I would really be looking and listening to how well you present yourself. I know that you are use to going to work everyday because the military don't play that calling in and I know you are use to doing team work but things have changed so much with the soldiers getting out verses when I got out 17 years ago but for sure you would be at the top of my list. GOOD LUCK.
