RA/NA: Old issue, different angle

[Icanstudy]

From my experience, outside these discussion boards and the Academia world, people just don’t know the difference between RA and NA. In fact, my wife and two sisters in-law have earned MBAs. Despite holding significant positions in the corporate world for decades they couldn't tell you the difference. Consequentially, RA/NA doesn’t factor when they hire low- to mid-level managers.

I’ve read countless threads on the debate but haven’t found what I really want to know... Does NA really matter when applying for a job? I would greatly appreciate if the Graduates of "NA" Schools (especially California Coast University) would share their actual experiences with the following:

1) Has NA ever factored negatively (even been brought up) during a job interview, etc?

2) How did you apply your NA Degree?

Thank you for your assistance in advance.

Happy Holidays,
