Curious, could I ask the country? I've lived in both the US & UK and would say that the vast majority of companies I've been involved with (via employment or simply interviewing) haven't cared about my degrees, but instead care about what I've worked on in the past and what they perceive I could learn/add to the company.
NB I don't have a CS or EE background.
