[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, I graduated from CMU with a degree in Computer Engineering.  My colleague graduated from CalTech with a degree in Computer Science and both of us work in supporting the sales team.  My colleague and I make about 270K/yr with about 35K in annual bonus.  The lowest sales person on the team makes around 800K per year and the highest sales person makes around 1.5M.  Funny thing is that the person that makes 1.5M per year went to NVCC for two years and transferred to GMU after that.  He was an average student, according to him, but his eq and social skills are off the chart.  According to him, he partied a lot in college but he also played in a band and they performed at private parties and that's how he networked with wealthy people.  He parlayed many of those connections when he went into technology sales.

Mastering social skills is so much harder than academic, IMHO.  [/quote]

My DH is in sales and transferred from CC to four year college. [/quote]
