I didn't say it was based on hard data, that's why it's a hypothesis...
But, if you really believe that it's a huge leap to hypothesize that interviews would be a better measure of subjective social skills than metrics like GPA, I don't know what to tell you.
- emodendroket 10y agoI mean let's go further back. I question the assumption that selecting for "culture fit" does much more than shut people out whose ethnic background or social class is too different.
- ravitation 10y agoI mean, that's an extremely narrow reading of "culture fit". Believe it or not, there are non-racist and non-classist character traits that are also not represented in one's GPA. But, I guess hiring for one's willingness to work with specific clients, or for one's happiness with the organization's structure (in, for example, a holacracy) wouldn't be valid things to hire around to you?
