I think it has more to do with today's market. Most people are working while trying to further their education. The amount of education required to keep a job or obtain a job in today's market has increased greatly. Most jobs require some sort of continuing education, and the best way to get that is online. This has translated to online education, which has evolved even more. The employer sees someone who not only works full-time, but also completes more education. This accomplishment can only be viewed as a positive to employers.
In today's marketplace, more and more schools are offering online coursework. The standards that were set in an in-class setting are being met and even exceeded using online formats. Hiring of most employees is done by meeting a specific qualification and then interviewing qualified candidates to see if they: 1. Possess the knowledge they claim; 2. Fit the personality of the office; 3. Bring a positive attitude. 4. etc. Therefore, having the degree is more important than where it was obtained. Therefore, I would hire the candidate that best fits with my current employees and the needs of the position.
