I thought the most interesting finding was that completing Udacity or Coursera courses on programming/algorithms (for non-top school graduates) was highly predictable of strong interviewing performance.
- cema 10y agoWell, those people were self directed and had a strong interest.

If those courses include such a unit, it would explain the performance on stereotypical tech interviews.
