I need to qualify this a little better because it sounds like I am saying "no college" is good. That's not the case. I would not hire someone who's only finished high-school and had zero college work. The only way I could possibly do this if their verifiable work was so outstanding that there was no doubt they could perform.
I want to see basics such as college-level math, calculus, physics and, ideally some CS course work. If they dropped out after that and the work history and relevant knowledge checks out I would not hold being a college dropout against them.
Very few people can get a solid education by themselves just out of high-school without being exposed to college-level work.
I know people without any degrees that have more college units than most people with two degrees. They are simply perennial self-driven students and have not interest in degrees but rather, knowledge. Admirable, if you can do it.
