THAT cannot be replaced or substituted by a degree of any kind.

I'm not sure what kind of "pressure" you're refering to. But, evidently you don't agree with the policy of many large corporations around the world.

They want both experience and academic achievements. They want it all. And, why shouldn't they? It's possible to earn big $$$ in this game and they want well educated individuals.

Are you aware that many positions require graduate degrees?
Think that's a scam too?

Just be glad you can gain recognition in this field after just 4 years of college.

Sorry you don't like it but that's the way it is!
