I mean that's not at all surprising in the games industry. Would you hire an engineer for a web-company who doesn't go to any websites?

- chillacy 8y agoNot as a PM or UI developer but if it were for the kind of thing you'd need distributed systems knowledge for, then yea why not?
- gamblor956 8y agoNo, but I wouldn't care if someone in HR or Finance or Legal didn't go to websites. I would be hiring them for their skill in HR/Finance/Legal/whatever. If they happened to also visit websites, that would be a plus that could be the deciding factor against an otherwise equally matched candidate.
- rbanffy 8y ago> Would you hire an engineer for a web-company who doesn't go to any websites? It really depends, but if the person is tasked with automating server fleets or optimizing compile-time kernel settings, it makes perfect sense (except for the fact all important documentation is on the web these days).
- HelloNurse 8y agoIt would be a very strange engineer; using websites is not an acquired taste and a specialist hobby like playing LoL.
- dagw 8y agoI got hired as a developer at a civil engineering company despite knowing absolutely nothing about civil engineering.
