Where did Google say this?
- sjg007 8y agoIn an interview with the New York Time by their chief of HR at the time: https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/20/business/in-head-hunting-big-data-may-not-be-such-a-big-deal.html?_r=1& https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/20/business/in-head-hunting-...
- eindiran 8y ago"Years ago, we did a study to determine whether anyone at Google is particularly good at hiring. We looked at tens of thousands of interviews, and everyone who had done the interviews and what they scored the candidate, and how that person ultimately performed in their job. We found zero relationship. It’s a complete random mess, except for one guy who was highly predictive because he only interviewed people for a very specialized area, where he happened to be the world’s leading expert." From the third paragraph of the first answer here: https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/20/business/in-head-hunting-big-data-may-not-be-such-a-big-deal.html https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/20/business/in-head-hunting-...
- cheez 8y agoAh. My glancing-fu is not strong. Thank you.
- hooloovoo_zoo 8y agoThey said that given you are hired, there is no correlation between job performance and your interview score, not that there is no correlation between someone's interview score and how that person will perform. It's analogous to saying people who scored 1600 on their SAT perform no better than those who scored 1500, not that SAT scores are unrelated to performance.
