Looking up the actual experiment, you're completely misrepresenting the conclusions. Here: https://www.google.com/amp/business.financialpost.com/entrepreneur/four-things-google-found-that-didnt-matter-in-the-hiring-process/amp https://www.google.com/amp/business.financialpost.com/entrep...
These were their conclusions:
1. The ability to hire well is random. This is referring to individuals, not the system as a whole.
2. Forget brain-teasers. Focus on behavioral questions in interviews, rather than hypotheticals
3. Consistency matters for leaders
4. Grades don’t predict anything about who is going to be a successful employee. School grades, that is.
So, stop making stuff up from behind your throwaway account.
- throwaway71958 10y agoOuch, "making stuff up". That's harsh, my man. Thus far I've made absolutely nothing up in this thread, or indeed in any others under this account. And you're using a PR puff piece written by Google HR to discount years of personal experience that I'm sharing here. You're free to not believe me, but let's not level accusations without evidence, OK?
