Well there are tons of private universities across the US and they don't actively pitch to people, they rely on their reputations. I've always been leery of places that have to convince you that they're credible.

As for hiring, I think it would be dependent on what field you're going into. If it's an area that Devry is pretty established in you might find that you're tying into a decent network of past graduates, but if it's a newer area it might be an uphill battle. I don't have any personal experience with Devry, but I've always found that the more you have to prove that your education is legitimate the less chance you have of being hired.
