Reply to comment by gunshoes in [D]Can a bachelor get a job in ML? by alphapussycat

Ok, so that proves that someone has the skill. But when someone doesn't have master/phd, that doesn't prove that someone doesn't have that skill. In other words, if someone has no master/phd degree, but has published a research paper, then they have also proved to have that skill, so it should be possible for someone with bachelor / no bachelor to get a job in ML. Is that correct?

No, many hiring managers will use arbitrary criteria to reduce the number of applicants they need to evaluate for a job. Degree requirements are one of those. While yes, there probably are a few people who are in ML jobs without meeting degree requirements, in general, you're going to struggle without them.
