Man this bothers me so much.
Some of my friends and even myself have gotten rejected in interviews , after answering all the questions , clearing all the tasks just because I presume we were not the geniuses they were looking for.
It's not enough to be good. You gotta be eye poppingly prodigiously awesome sauce at what you do.
You can be determined , driven whatever , they don't want you because you're at risk of turning out to be a B-Player.
This is almost a form of cognitive elitism.
- ljk 11y agoNot defending this trend, and I also fall into the non-geniuses category, but it kinda makes sense that just "determinations" sometimes won't get too far and it makes more business sense to find someone "smarter" to solve a problem, and also less risky for the employer
- ArkyBeagle 11y agoI think these people are Waiting for Superman. Watch their ads after they decline to offer you - it'll run until they just take it down without filling the position. In the end, it's still just a job. Hopefully, it's fun and all but I can attest that it's possible to take it all too seriously.
