Companies nationwide are demanding more retired first sergeants and sergeants major with skills backed by a prestigious online homeland security degree, sources confirmed this morning.
In a move to show how sought-after the skills encompassed in educational backgrounds such as counterterrorism, homeland security, and national defense studies really are, thousands of companies across the U.S. have told reporters they would hire graduates immediately, without even so much as an interview.
"If you have one of these degrees, it is in such high demand right now. We need these skills today, not tomorrow," said Bill Putnam, a hiring manager for McDonalds in Mobile, Alabama.
