If you ask me, I think that this is analagous to the situation where some guy gets rejected at a job interview because he "doesn't have a degree", which is in truth just an excuse.
Actually (without hoping to trigger a flame war), there are a lot of very large comanies, mainly in the US (mainly in the finanial sector or eduction sector, and occassionaly in the defense sector), who DO refuse to hire without a degree. There are many good technical persons out there who don't have a degree. There are almost many unemployeed technical persons who would make better admins / engineers than some people I know who have degrees. With the current situation, I see the following: Proportionally here are more technical people in jobs WITH degrees than without People with degrees have more experience, and get farther I believe the latter reason is because more people hire candidates with degrees. Vicious circle. Not hiring people who don't hold degrees is fast becoming a policy matter. The reasons for it are numerous. Very few (IMO) are 'good' reasons.
