I heard somewhere that stress resilience is at least one skill well-nurtured while in pursuit of terminal degrees. This can be argued in itself. However, if correlation is significant - does it become the next valuable "signal" for employers?

Else, Is this a signal merely because "everyone" is trying to pursue grad school to stay competitive with bachelor, and a new benchmark is needed?
