"Although I do not have a master's degree, I do bring a plethora of related experience from my last two positions over the last ten years. Both organizations provided me with exceptional training. In addition to this formal on-the-job training, I have also read numerous business books and attended a variety of industry-related workshops."
"I have a bachelor's degree in marketing from Concordia University. I am proud to say that I graduated with a 3.8 GPA and made the Dean's List every semester. I have a lot to offer Procter and Gamble when it comes to my knowledge of consumer products, marketing, and advertising."

Talk to the interviewer about your post-secondary education, being sure to highlight the best parts of your performance along the way. If you do not have the formal education that is required for the role you are interviewing for at Procter and Gamble, you will need to sell the interviewer on the idea that you have gained the knowledge, skills, and experience required to succeed.

"I've only just recently graduated high school, and I'm looking for an entry-level position to get my foot in the door with a reputable and stable company like Proctor & Gamble. Once I'm established and settled into my role, I do have plans to attend my community college in the evenings to pursue a degree in business administration. Does Proctor & Gamble offer any sort of tuition assistance programs for employees?"

I am very self-initiated when it comes to education, from reading various books on different topics, attending online courses is also a huge benefit of the online world, so I try to grasp it when I see the benefit of it. But above all, I most value the experience gain from colleagues at work, since work-related experience is incomparable with all else.
