It's hard to get the specialization that a degree provides you, working on the side with normal work.
- user5994461 9y agoGraduates are just better. They go through a hardcore selection and intensive training for 3-5 years in the field. It's jackpot if he has an internship related to the job. Picking a random people who wants to reconvert is unlikely to yield any result. Certainly missing the years of training on maths/statistics. Probably missing any experience in any related area.
- hvidgaard 9y agoMy point, which I think you validated, is that if you want to retrain people, you need to put serious effort into it. A graduate will have at least 1 full year focusing on the topic and the large part of the remaining time was spend on fundamentals and related topics.
