In my experience they’ve dropped the hard requirement, but in my industry they still prioritize candidates by degree. So I mean, cool if the industry isn’t currently saturated with applicants.
All things being equal, that doesn’t seem like an unreasonable position.
It isn’t. I’m just suggesting that depending on industry, it may or may not change the status quo much.
Corpo propaganda lol
I guess they are not getting as many GenZ applicants as they expect. I bet it is due to demographics. Funny how college degree can be this easily waived when needed…
Millennials with student loans going to be punished by by daddy market… AGAIN
We’ve seen larger technology and software companies prioritize skills over degrees because of the speed at which the industry evolves.
1 in 3 companies are also firing developers :). This just smells like they’re trying to lower dev compensation so they lower requirements, get more younger/cheaper devs and also use it as an excuse why your pay is not as high as it could be.
It makes sense. Fifty years ago, only the top ten percent of academic achievers went to university, now it’s closer to fifty percent (in the UK).
There aren’t an extra forty percent of jobs that require a uni level of education, qualifications are just being used as a trivial way to discriminate between potential applicants at great expense to students.
If our parents could get well paying jobs without needing a degree, then why shouldn’t we?
