Question for HR. How often do they look for / accept applicants with higher education?

Question

Career in IT

Concerning the IT direction.
I would like to voice it in % ratio.
If it's not difficult, along with separate statistics for large offices ala Yandex, Sberbank, etc.

Answer 1

Yes, no one is specifically looking for.
Just a resume comes in - if there is no tower, no work experience - then we take another resume where there is a tower, and even better where there is work experience.

Answer 2

"no one is looking at the tower", "the tower is not needed", etc.)

Answer 3

I worked in two companies where after some time they asked to bring a diploma of higher education. The companies needed this to participate in some kind of tender. And this, for a moment, is a lot of money.
So yes, a higher education diploma is very profitable for some companies from a financial point of view.

Answer 4

Look at hh.ru in the requirements, which are mainly written by hr, the item "higher education" is present / absent.

Answer 5

It all depends a lot on where you go. There are many places where the tower is not needed. There are many places where it is required.
I am currently working in the R&D of one of the world's giants, so this is generally a fat plus if you are a candidate (or rather a doctor) of mathematical / technical / computer sciences.
But in any case, at the interview they will look not at crusts, but at real knowledge, skills and abilities and how well they combine with the upcoming tasks.

Answer 6

So, thesis why any person with the question of whether a "tower" or an army is needed can be answered that it is needed :)
1. In fact, you doubt that those people who have no doubts went into business and feel fine, although they do not like dropouts.
2. The knowledge that you will receive is in question, but you will gain the ability to cover your ass
3. Acquaintances, and for life. Everyone is there
4. Offices often require VO, some the army
5. Suddenly, but VO gives a lot of advantages in migration requirements
6. Suddenly, but in foreign offices they also require a diploma
Something like this

Answer 7

A fresh example from life: to participate in the state. In the tender, the creative team urgently needed someone with diplomas as a screenwriter, cinematographer, etc. - nominally, not for work - they do all the work as an established team. Nobody was going to pay "graduated".
