Who would hire middle of the road engineers?! Everyone hires only the top 1%, of course.

- canterburry 10y agoSort of my point. You may think you only hire good people, but by comparison you are hiring middle of the road. Thus, you clearly don't know what a top 1% engineer looks like.
- draw_down 10y agoWell, I think all of this is just stories that we tell ourselves. Are some engineers better than others, yeah sure, but we're not gonna find that out in our silly little interviews we conduct. I was being tongue-in-cheek with my first post, but I do think there is a flipside to what you say in the OP. If the people giving interviews are 25 and have only had one job since they graduated, they may mistake an unfamiliar way of doing things as incompetence.
