This seems like a very narrow view. I don't know where you live but in Asian countries, people care about certificates too much. It's also often used as a way to filter poor people without directly discriminating because certification costs time and money.

Serious question: In which Asian countries is it a problem to directly discriminate?

What type of discrimination?

In SEA I see "Male Only" on programmer jobs not that infrequently, plus very often age requirements explicitly stated for all sorts of jobs.

> age requirements

I'm curious: minimum or maximum?

Maximum, I saw a couple the other day -- 33 and 45. As a 32 year old I didn't feel too encouraged by that!
