Nearly half, or 45%, of employers scrapped degree requirements for some roles in the past year, and 72% now prioritize skills over certificates in job candidates, according to the ZipRecruiter survey. The trend, which prioritizes a candidate's practical skills and real-world experience over formal education, appears to be "gaining momentum," according to ZipRecruiter. Meanwhile, hiring managers are being more explicit in job ads about the specific skills they seek in applicants, said Cory Stahle, an economist at the job site Indeed. What this means for job seekers"If the [job ad's] focus is on skills, the focus of your resume should be on skills as well," Stahle said. While skills should be "prominent" in such cases, that doesn't mean applicants should forgo traditional information, Stahle added.
