Probably because they could hire about 2-4 recent grads for the price of someone that has proven themselves.

- not2b 6y agoAnd in the short term, the proven developer will be significantly more productive than the 2-4 recent grads and require much less work to manage.
- scarface74 6y agoHow would a recent grad cope working fully remotely without any mentorship? I would much rather go with someone with more experience. That being said, I have to admit that I was very impressed with the work done by the two interns that were on my team (at $BigTech) who are leaving next week. But they had their own projects and weren’t on critical paths.
- fzzzy 6y agoWe just had a fully remote intern because of corona. He was great. The manager who puts an intern on the critical path is a very bad manager.
- scarface74 6y agoWe have no idea how they - or any fresh grads would do as full time employees. I think they would do okay. But they are treated with kid gloves compared to FTE’s.
