Our vigorous interview culture also allows us to not be as credentialist & elitist about what school you've went to. As a result, someone can get a job a google without having to have gone to a top ten comp sci school, like you would have to with law or business.
- seccess 9y agoSupporting anecdote: Awhile ago I interned at Google and my engineering manager - who was quite high level - did not have a high school degree.
- TheGRS 9y agoYea I was trying to think of a way of putting this that didn't sound too trite, but I think you've nailed it. This process is decent way to combat nepotism or BS'ing your way up. There's a bit of elitism to "if you can't hack the technical interview, you can't hack the job", but this is why some of these alternate ideas have been tried like the take home exam.
