The problem is that too many entry level office jobs require a degree. Any degree.

The degree isn’t the problem. The problem is there’s too many applicants for the office job.

No entry level office degree “requires” a degree. The reality is every applicant has one…which establishes the floor. Now an MA is necessary to standout for an interview.

…ironically, the applicant should never disclose a PhD, because that application will be immediately dismissed for fear of short term interest in the entry level position.
