You get a resume from a candidate with the education and qualifications you’re looking for. Do you care if the person’s schooling took place online?
HR managers care less than they used to, according to a recent Society for Human Resources Management survey. Nearly all (90%) of HR managers say online degrees are viewed more favorably that they were five years ago. And individual courses taken online are as credible as traditional courses, according to 68% of HR managers.
But still, more often than not, companies would rather see applicants who’ve attended traditional schools: 63% said, all other things being equal, their organization would hire someone who went to a traditional college over one with an online degree.
What’s your company’s take on applicants with online degrees? Does it make a difference? Let us know your opinion in the comments section below.

I'm agree with u vikas as in this fast paced era, on-line degrees are also acceptable. As per my company is concerned still they are with traditional ones.....but soon like certifications CCNA and MCSE these are also found to be in big way
