What do prospective employers really think of online degrees?

Posted by admin
daisy chains asked:

Are you an employer? If you had two equally qualified applicants and one went to a brick-and-mortar college and the other earned an online degree, which would you hire?

Or have you earned an online degree? If so, what has been your experience in finding good employment? If not, why have you opted not to earn an online degree?

Share your stories either way? Thanks.
If you have earned an online degree, from which institution have you earned it? Your experiences with that particular institution? Thanks.
