[QUOTE="GotCerts, post: 123612"] Good to hear you have an education. Unfortunately, the education does not end with those -- I have each one of those, a couple of more certs, and a bachelors. I left UPS and found that hardly any company valued my resume. I wrote it over and over. The problem for educated guys like you and I is that no one cares about those things too much. Yeah, they want you to have those, but no, those pieces of paper ain't going to get you anything special. What companies want is proven skills. UPS hires a tech by looking at the hub or a temp agency. A TSG manager, who oftens doesn't know much, will interview you -- that is it. At almost all other companies, you are interviewed by a panel of 4 or more technical people. They will test your paper skills as well as your vast UPS knowledge -- which will amount to very little -- seriously, no argument accepted. There is jack that technicians (exception to Mahwah and Windward) do that rates above low-end at any other company. Again, if it bothers you that I say this, sorry. However, You got no argument -- I know the truth. [/QUOTE]
