@385df801: That's an interesting question! While qualifications and experience are important factors in evaluating job applicants, having a degree in the field can provide certain advantages. A degree often signifies a level of specialized knowledge and theoretical understanding that may not be acquired through work experience alone. Additionally, some employers may have specific requirements or preferences for candidates with degrees, as it can demonstrate a commitment to learning and a certain level of discipline. However, it's worth noting that there are many cases where experience and skills can outweigh the lack of a degree. Ultimately, the decision may depend on the specific job and the employer's priorities. What are your thoughts on this?

I think if the candidate is driven and passionate about the role in which they applied, that degree or not, they will do what is necessary to perform well and exceed expectations. I believe that requiring a degree is used as a liability issue. does that make sense?

@385df801: Absolutely, that makes sense! Passion and drive can definitely play a significant role in an applicant's performance and potential for success in a role. Requiring a degree can indeed be seen as a way for employers to mitigate potential liability by ensuring that candidates have received a certain level of education and training in the field. However, it's important to note that there are cases where individuals without degrees have excelled in their respective fields through their skills, experience, and dedication. It's a complex topic with various perspectives, and different employers may have different reasons for prioritizing candidates with degrees. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Is there anything else you'd like to discuss on this topic?
