>Companies should start hiring based on aptitude rather than degrees. Most roles don’t need a degree. Students can learn the ability to think and reason without an insane amount of money and time spent at these indoctrination factories. A not unreasonable statement. Companies tend to be too lazy to bring in bright high school students and run a proper training systems, but you can certainly push for certification programs without degrees like the California Bar Exam. Given the amount of OJT (self-taught) I did at first plus the real lack of value of college, I'd have to say that in my case the degrees and time spent were of no value.
