Could be dangerous if it gets back to your manager at your current job that you are interviewing other places. Unless the person you meet is pretty senior I doubt they would be able to impact you getting the job one way or another. Something you could ask is just like: oh I've heard great things about xxxx, what has your experience been like?

Yes, and what SC1 says too. If I knew you did something to give back to charity and community you'd win serious points from me in hiring process

the individual I met was new to their firm and in a lower rank than I would be hired in

yes, no brainer

Nope

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
