The economy continues to be a friendly place for job seekers, and not just for the ultra-educated—economists are predicting ever-improving prospects for workers without a degree as well.
Job-search site Glassdoor recently compiled a list of 15 top employers that have said they no longer require applicants to have a college degree. Tech giants Google, Apple, and IBM are all in this group.
