an applicant without one wouldn't even get an interview. And as far as the value of experience goes... from my friends' experiences in computer science (which may or may not be relevant), those programmers who are self-taught and who know a large number of individual languages and systems and such eventually reach a level where their lack of theory holds them back. EG sure you can know how to use SAP and Oracle Tools 8 and whatnot, but if you don't have a few courses in relational database theory... eventually, you're going to top out.
