It shouldn't be but while adding jobs to the site there were tons that require a CS degree. And I know people with 13 years of experience that have been turned down for jobs due to no degree.
- kissgyorgy 7y agoI personally don't want to work for a company who turns down somebody because of not having a degree. If they are not smart enough with their hiring process, it's a good sign that will be other, bigger problems too.
- ticmasta 7y agoThis is the attitude of someone with a good job or lots of opportunities and seems pretty common on HN. Many (most?) people do not have the luxury of high-minded ideals like this. Plus, you do realize you're categorically ruling out a company by projecting one trait onto their entire culture, for the crime of using an arbitrary signaling factor?
- kissgyorgy 7y ago> you do realize you're categorically ruling out a company by projecting one trait onto their entire culture I usually don't do that, but I can't tolerate this kind of rigidness with old habits.
