Still do.
I am surprised sometimes to see a Bachelor’s degree required for some jobs. It’s a byproduct of degree inflation.
Which is a product of grade inflation in the public schools. Everyone knows we are graduating seniors who can barely read and write. But if we start holding kids back who can't pass, we'll have a bottle-neck in the 3rd grade.
It’s a byproduct of qualification testing being ruled discriminatory.
It’s because high school education has been so dumbed down, and the law ruling that employers cannot give IQ tests to prospective employees that brought this about. A bachelors degree is now considered the equivalent of what a HS grad used to learn 50 years ago.
