It might be a way to screen certain employers. But it really depends on the vertical.
Personally, I love hiring misfits. One of my more memorable hires was student intern who flipped from computer science to history after she applied. I figured the interview was over and we chitchated a bit where I learned she was a wedding planner on the side. She turned out to an amazing PM and went really deep into data analytics work.
Another dude was a smartass kid at the Apple Store. Dropped out of college to chase some girl. Hired him as a 19 year old contractor for exec Macs and he turned into an incredible infrastructure engineer.
So it may be a good hook. But you need to find the right person.
