Which will depreciate just as fast for the same reason.
- eximius 6y agoNot necessarily. Most gatekeeping institutions outside of education works fairly well. The Bar, the AMA, PE exams, etc.
- californical 6y agoNot necessarily if it's challenging enough. Based on CS/SWE knowledge and requiring a lot of focused effort. Not a requirement to create software professionally, but a requirement to be a "Software Engineer". This would reduce the need for crazy interviews for those that have passed it, since it proves a level of competence above scraping by for a CS degree, etc! Maybe you need a few years of real work experience to have a chance at passing the Software Engineer accreditation. Just like if you have a long work history at GoogAmaFaceSoft, it's assumed you're already pretty capable.
