It's one of those things that vacillates between extremes.
Right now we're in a secret great depression (secret only because nobody in government wants to admit the truth, it's fully obvious to anyone with eyes who doesn't have their butler do their shopping for them), so there's not enough jobs anyway so why not hire someone with a bunch of extra qualifications? Hell, ask for a 4-year degree to stock shelves at Walmart, it isn't like there isn't a massive supply of people.
If things turned around (probably looking at a decade or two at least, and they'd need to accept the actual state of the world for that to happen), then eventually it's like "Do you wander the streets of downtown wearing nothing but used newspaper and are on the offender registry for urinating in a kids playground while making deliberate unblinking eye contact with the children? We want to make you our new CEO!"
The good thing is that in the second phases sometimes you find people who really are talented, but other times you actually can judge a book by its cover.
