No college degree? These 50 companies offer the best advancement options according to a new study

Now a new survey is showcasing publicly traded companies that offer the best career mobility for people without a degree. Among the top 50 is AT&T, where just 5% of the jobs require a college degree.

The American Opportunity Index ranks the 250 largest U.S. public companies, looking at career histories, job postings, and salary sources. Philadelphia think tank Burning Glass Institute led the five-year study.

AT&T won the index’s position as top company overall as well as making the top 50 in the career growth and career launchpad fields, but the rest are listed alphabetically rather than ranked.

The study looks not just at job openings for people without degrees, but also the chances of advancement. That’s critical as upward mobility has been decreasing across America for decades.

“Opportunity and upward mobility have long been central to the American experiment; however, this generational trend has been on a decades-long downward slide,” said Matt Sigelman, president of the Burning Glass Institute in a statement. “If you were born in the 1940s, you had a 90% chance of doing better than your parents. Today, it’s even odds.”
