Overview
Most people believe a degree is the price of admission to a meaningful, high-paying career. Without it, your options are limited, and your ceiling is fixed. But that narrative isn’t just outdated. It’s costing millions of capable professionals the futures they’ve already earned.
In How to Get Hired Without a Degree, technologist CEO and DEI advocate LaShana Lewis dismantles the notion of the “paper ceiling” and reveals what it really takes to build a thriving career without a diploma. Drawing from her own journey—from being repeatedly shut out of opportunities to rising as a CTO—Lewis delivers a practical, proven roadmap for workers skilled through alternative routes (STARs).
How to Get Hired Without a Degree equips readers with the tools to translate real-world skills into real opportunities—whether that means breaking into a new field, advancing into leadership, or finally being recognized for their value, with lessons including:
- How to focus on skill-building for a competitive advantage
- How to gain credible experience without traditional credentials
- How to navigate hiring processes with confidence and strategy
- How to grow, pivot, and lead in your career long-term
With this book, all professionals can feel empowered with the tools to claim the career they deserve and help reshape a workforce that’s primed for change.
