Not since the “great H1-B famine of 2018”. I work for one of the larger accounting / consulting firms. We are rolling a program out next year to hire directly out of high school (!). They are going to take care of the whole training pipeline themselves. Apparently they modeled it after what Nucor Steel does: http://www.nucor.com/careers/training/technical-academy/ http://www.nucor.com/careers/training/technical-academy/
- kkarakk 8y agooh wow this is going to create a whole lot of "people who can't do anything else& think in very particular ways"
- reidjs 8y agoWhat makes you think that? I don’t think a college degree is strictly necessary to be an intelligent person.
- kkarakk 8y agoyour education influences how you think. universities and colleges invariably have political stances and the provision to learn the good/bad of the same. i shudder to think what a company will do to kids straight out of highschool with the same amount of time unions bad! does work life balance really matter? are conservative ideologies really better fundamentally? these are viewpoints you can EASILY inculcate in a teenager given the right amount of motivation(responsibilities,perks,money,being treated as an adult etc etc) i can't see how a company would NOT abuse this. it's a golden opportunity to create drones that work perfectly ONLY in your culture
