It doesnt stop them. Private companies have the option to hire who ever they want, and if they want to hire someone with a degree over someone who is experienced and know their shit, then that's their business.
This is only being applied to federal jobs as far as I know. Which in my opinion, is great. Right now i'm a federal contractor working IT. But with this new EO, it would allow me to apply for my job as a CIV rather than a CTR. I would make less money, sure, but I would be allowed to retire a second time (prior military) and I could potentially be collecting 2 retirement checks by the time i'm 50. And as a CIV, I wouldnt have to worry about my CTR position going away or having to go through the headache of moving my retirement plan over to the new contract.
