4.7 Million LinkedIn Users Are Employed by Small Businesses [INFOGRAPHIC]
There are more paths to a good job than the usual four years of college and an internship at a big firm. As the infographic below shows, a fair number of people on LinkedIn are veterans of the military services or graduates of community colleges.
For the former, operations and information technology have been the most fertile fields, while community college grads tend to wind up in business or computer science.
The data also show opportunities outside of big business : Some 4.7 million LinkedIn members — out of roughly 100 million in total — are employed by small businesses. It’s unclear how many of those are new to their positions, but many LinkedIn members have moved around of late. According to the company, there have been 7.4 million job changes since 2009.
What do you think ? Are four-year degrees overrated ? Let us know in the comments.
