Sumario:Some researchers have shown that the expansion and diversification of the higher education system in Brazil was followed by a hierarchy of institutes that potentially affects the prestige of individuals occupation and the differential valuing of credentials in the labor market (Prates, 2007, 2010). In addition, several authors have pointed that the recruitment of professionals with higher education is influenced by the cultural aspect of their credentials (Brown, 1995; Murphy, 1988; Diprete, 1989; Larson, 1977). In this academic work we have investigated to what extent there is a differential valuing of higher education qualifications in terms of academic degree (bachelors versus technologist) in the labor market in Belo Horizonte. We have concluded that employers relie more in the bachelors degree than the in technologist when it comes to recruiting higher positions in the firm. And that, in accordance with the proposition of the credentialism, employers based largely on the beliefs and cultural attitudes that have no direct relationship with an objective evaluation of productivity, for example, the individual performance evaluations conducted in firms.
