> My friend JUST got hired by United
@Crow your friend just picked the worst time since 9/11 to get into the aerospace industry lol
Nothing a war can’t fix
Oooof
tell him to apply at fedex
I'm sure he already has tho
He's college educated
College degrees don't mean shit when your industry has laid of 10s if not 100s of thousands of people since the beginning of the year
College degrees dont mean shit period
unless its in engineering.
Engineering, Medical, and Law degrees are literally the only reason to go to college
you dont get medical or law degrees in college but yes
wouldn't know, spent one semester there and got a job <:tuckerlaugh:758872277550235658>
Degrees are a ticket into a career, depending on your field of study, that college study may be valuable applied to your career. I'd say I could have taken a 6 months intesnsive learning program to prepare me for what I do today, possibly a year since it is interdiscipline. Most of what I do day-to-day was learned on the job over time. Some concepts and foundational understanding *did* come from college. But, to even get an interview you have to have that paper (or papers increasingly).
TBH, a bachelor's degree isn't much better than an associates degree from 30 years ago, or a High School Diploma from 1950.
College degrees, like everything else, have been devalued to near worthlessness via government money creation (e.g. student loans for anyone who can fog a mirror). College standards have also been dumbed down over the years to accommodate a larger student population.
the other issue is they are simply used as a filter system
the job problay doesnt require it in reality
but it makes a great filter HR can use to shorten the pile
It may be a filter for conscientiousness and to a lesser degree IQ
it’s an inefficient mechanism for evaluating those traits though
i have seen hr departments do some realy shifty things with "filtering"
4 years long, possibly 250k dollars
for isntance they have a job they want to have a h1b take
but they have to offer the job to some one in the usa first
so what they will do is place a job listing with imposable or bizaro requierments that no one either would qualify or intelegently acept
when no one applies they say they cant find some one to do the work
and then hire the h1b for pennies on the dollar
i once saw an ad for a job that requiered 15 years of experiance in java
java had only existed for 5 years
so i looks at some of the companies other listings
