“Wait, my Bachelor’s degree is not enough?” Maybe—it depends.

Professional careers and certain employment positions have always required a student to pursue higher education beyond the Bachelor’s, whether it was a Master’s degree or a Doctorate. Now there are at least wo added factors in the picture. First, employers ofter do not trust that the generalized education associated with a Bachelor’s degree conveys an accurate and usable understanding of what a student knows, the existence of a definable major notwithstanding. Second, there is currently a surplus of college graduates in the workplace, and employers can therefore be more demanding about education credentials.
