For technical positions the employers are more concerned about how easily you can pick up new things, and not how book smart you are. Once they hire you they need you to adapt to the new technology on your own, and be able to troubleshoot the technology and develop solutions to complete projects. People who are just booksmart can have a hard time doing this.
