Stupid Employeers think it is necessary. Actually let me tell u a secret when u complete to a job and lets say u have a Enginnering degree but the job is financial analyst the degree requirment is there just to eliminate candidates and lessen the number of participants and NOT because enginneering got anything to do with being financial analyst This is very common because most people get hired in jobs irrelevant to their degree U spend years suffering in UV with shit food and shithole teachers and waste 4 - 6 years of most productive life just to get a paper that will put you a little further from elimination? Ouch.
