Tertiary Education merits or the soft skills?

I've got a burning question, does the "brand" of your bachelor's degree really matters so much when it comes to career advancement?

I've asked this question to many of the seniors in this industry around me. So far, I've gotten mixed replies.

In my opinion, if I'm not going to work for the government sector, then it doesn't really matter. I choose to believe that my interpersonal skills and the positive attitude has an edge over someone whose merits are purely based on academic results. Technical skills would improve over time.

It just takes a smart employer to discover a gem like me.

I guess I can conclude now.
