Why in the world, if you have two people that have the same experience, would you pick the one that had to be taught by someone else? Don't you think that they person that taught them self the skills might have a little more drive to get the job done, and would be able to concur any problem they come up against??
I am 21, working in the bay area at a tech company, have been working since I was 15. I have more real world experience then many people around me. Though I am starting college in the spring because I see areas that would help me, I don't think it is right to pick someone purely because they have a degree.
