Does it really matter these days at all. The person that just left Tesla that was heading up their self-driving dreams went from a graduate degree to that position in one go. It didn't look like they had any real-world experience at all. Granted, self-driving technology is still be worked on, but that doesn't mean a better candidate wouldn't have some sort of real world experience doing something related.
