That's conjecture. Do we really know that?
Would you go to a doctor who was an English major? (and didn't go to med school?)
A dentist who graduated from the art department at a community college?
etc...
Of course, the engineer applicants might not be more qualified than an English major, but they have taken classes in their area of expertise. That's why colleges have majors. Otherwise, why not let students take 120 credits of whatever they like?
Apparently that is acceptable for a position with the County of Hawaii. Maybe even get a pCard with the job.
