Nowadays, some employers think that formal academic qualifications are more important than life experience or personal qualities when they look for new employees. Why is it the case? Is it a positive or negative development?

These days formal

education

are considered more important than life experience or personal traits by employers. There are many reasons for

this

and in my opinion,

this

is a positive development.

Education

is used to measure a person’s qualification and it makes it easier for employers to choose the right candidates.

In other words

, companies look for experts who are not required much training at the same time they are productive.

For instance

, most of the core industries hire

students

who successfully graduated from college with a formal

education

who are the subject matter experts.

This

helps companies to make more innovative products.

Secondly

, more

students

would be interested in pursuing higher

education

and joining universities.

This

would increase the

education

literacy rate and

also

pave way for employment.

For example

, more

students

are interested to join engineering colleges as there are more job opportunities that will contribute to the welfare of society. In conclusion, employers prefer people with better qualifications because

education

proves the candidate is sufficiently trained at the university. I think there are more advantages to the employer as well as

students

when the company insists more on formal

education

instead

of life experience or personal qualities.
