As humans we are not the same. we have our strength and weaknesses. my strength is different from you and your strength is different form mine. so we become two different entities not the same. Strength can be physical the ability to lift things, mental ability to grasp and understand things or social to ability to communicate with people and convince them or make them work for you. There are many strength people have and if I scale each of them as set of 1 to 100 they will fall in to all the range. some are naturally better at something’s while others are not. you may see marketing executives selling things they are not people with degrees but preform their task well. they are vary talkative and can sell anything to anyone. It is an ability a group of people possess. Ability’s like this cannot be learn at class rooms they are practical in nature and practice is the only way of getting perfect. so even you do your masters on marketing you may not be as good as them, if you does not possess the right abilities. It is the thing that makes who we are. what makes us unique. so if you give a same task to two individuals with same education background the way they perform the task will be defendant to each other even they are with same education background. one will do it better than the other. For some there will be no clue what so ever to some task, while others do it easily it is the abilities that make them do it. the one that has more suited abilities to do that task perform well while one that lac it do poorly
if you are a labor you will require more of physical strength but less mental strength since all your task belong to work with lifting things. If you are an engineer like software engineer you will require more of mental strength since task you handle is more of thinking and understanding whats going on, analyzing problems and also you must be a quick learner to learn new things which all comes under mental strength, if you are a marketing executive you need lot of social strength you should be able to convince people of products that you sell so they will buy it. if you are a manager you need lot of social strength since you need to make your employee do what you need and fair amount of mental strength since some of your task require thinking. analyzing situations and giving solutions.
That is why when selecting candidates for your company you do practical base analysis of their abilities to find out how well they will perform in their duties because education is not a measurement of performance it is rather a measurement of knowledge and knowledge alone cannot do tasks well.
so most of the time the person you recruit is not some one well educated, but some one possess right ability to that job. since you can easily give courses like CIMA or any marketing or engineering to a recruited person so they will be educated and will preform even better. but if recruited a person with just education an no talents you cannot teach that person talents and he will not preform well so most of the companies when they see a talented person they give him courses and educate him on that aria and give necessary promotions so that person will be an asset to the company. if you have done some sport like cricket or basket ball then you are a good team player. so you will know how to work within a team and not make problems with other team members. if you have win all island essay competitions you most likely are a creative person you have creativity. if you are an chess player and has win competitions you are statistic person who can think and most suitable for that tasks so they will choose you accordingly.
unfortunately the only organization that held back of this process is the government sector since they believe every person is equal and education makes them better so you only need bunch of paper qualification to their jobs just do your masters and PhDs and apply, you need not have any talents. they will recruit you and for work well since you are well educated they will buy what ever the lies you tell them.
