Or is put off from even applying.
Foxy,
You got that right, because everyone nowadays is aware how much emphasis is placed on Uni education but none on competence or aptitude.
If an employer selects a competent applicant over a so-called "educated" one all hell breaks loose by the feigned indignation discrimination brigade i.e. Lefties.

'Belly, runner is still sore about Eve feeding the apple to Adam. Is that correct runner. BTW what variety of apple was it? A Granny Smith.'

Individual,

Your experience sounds rather limited and
to be honest - selective. You need to broaden
it, if possible of course.

runner I know nothing of these apple matters, you're certainly got me on that one. You are the all knowing when it comes to the biblical bs.

Indy, can you tell us the last time the Lefties caused hell to break loose when an employer selected a "competent" applicant over a so-called "educated" one. Could that just be another figment of your imagination, it really doesn't happen does it, except in your minds eye.

Foxy & Paul1405,
You appear to have extremely short memories but I think you're just being selective.
Even Govt has a quota system for male/female representation & surely even you can see that gender is not a competence benchmark.
Were you two to go out & "broaden" your experience you'd find it a daily occurrence when people are chosen because of Uni degree rather than competence through experience.
Read the Govt gazette.
